Summary
These programs present the training received by students in the Jacob's Pillow new vision for dance workshop. The same program is repeated with some variations on two different nights. Director Lynn Simonson discusses the goals of the workshop, which focused on personal growth and healing within dance training. Dancers perform shortened versions of a ballet barre directed by Jaclyyn Villamil and combinations; a jazz warmup and routines created by Lynn Simonson; voice-movement exercises directed by guest teacher Marlies Yearby (first program); and modern dance routines created by guest teacher Janie Brendel (second program). At the end of both programs the dancers introduce themselves (by first name only). Following the second program there is a brief series of excerpts from Talkin', a collaborative performance by Marlies Yearby and Gary Sojkowski. For a recording of the full performance, see *MGZIA 4-8683.
