Description

1 videocassette (U-matic, NTSC) (29 min.) : sd., col.; 3/4 in.

Summary

Choreographers Stephen Petronio, Diane Jacobowitz, and Bebe Miller discuss some problems associated with pursuing a career in dance: finding a means of financial survival, dealing with a demanding schedule, the lack of work-related benefits such as health insurance and pension, aging, and other topics. Recorded excerpts depict Miller's Gotham, Petronio's Adrift (with Clifford Arnell), and Jacobowitz's The kampala (?). In Esoterica balletica, Lisa Sagolla tells some anecdotes drawn from her experiences in choreographing for the musical theater.
