Book Synopsis Dancing in the Wings by : Debbie Allen
Download or read book Dancing in the Wings written by Debbie Allen and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2000-09-01 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sassy worries that her too-large feet, too-long legs, and even her big mouth will keep her from her dream of becoming a star ballerina. So for now she's just dancing in the wings, watching from behind the curtain, and hoping that one day it will be her turn to shimmer in the spotlight. When the director of an important dance festival comes to audition her class, Sassy's first attempts to get his attention are, well, a little wobbly. But Sassy just knows, somehow, that this is her time to step out from those wings, and make her mark on the world. Actress/choreographer Debbie Allen and Kadir Nelson collaborated on Brothers of the Knight, about which School Library Journal raved, "the strutting high-stepping brothers are full of individuality, attitude, and movement."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why did dance and dancing became important to the construction of a new, modern, Jewish/Israeli cultural identity in the newly formed nation of Israel? There were questions that covered almost all spheres of daily life, including “What do we dance?” because Hebrew or Eretz-Israeli dance had to be created out of none. How and why did dance develop in such a way? Dance Spreads Its Wings is the first and only book that looks at the whole picture of concert dance in Israel studying the growth of Israeli concert dance for 90 years—starting from 1920, when there was no concert dance to speak of during the Yishuv (pre-Israel Jewish settlements) period, until 2010, when concert dance in Israel had grown to become one of the country’s most prominent, original, artistic fields and globally recognized. What drives the book is the impulse to create and the need to dance in the midst of constant political change. It is the story of artists trying to be true to their art while also responding to the political, social, religious, and ethnic complexities of a Jewish state in the Middle East.

Book Synopsis Roots and Wings by : Mary-Elizabeth Manley
Download or read book Roots and Wings written by Mary-Elizabeth Manley and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-30 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roots and Wings recounts Virginia Tanner's remarkable career as a dance artist, educator, and founder of the University of Utah's Tanner Dance Program. From her early experiences assisting at Evelyn Davis's dance school in Washington, D.C., to the creation of the Tanner Dance Program at the University of Utah, her influence in the field was pervasive. She channeled children's energy, sharpened their senses, and encouraged youthful, authentic dance expression. Tanner's work endures, continuing to echo with sensitivity and spirit in the bodies of young dancers throughout the United States and abroad. By revealing both the broader and specific themes of Tanner's career and legacy, this narrative fills an important void. While exploring Tanner's story, it also recognizes the value of unique instructional methodologies for teaching dance to young children and the vital role the arts play in children's lives.

But that fateful decision is to trigger a series of events, with consequences that will reverberate through the generations.

Book Synopsis The Prairie Chicken Dance Tour by : Dawn Dumont
Download or read book The Prairie Chicken Dance Tour written by Dawn Dumont and published by . This book was released on 2021-09-27 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hilarious story of an unlikely group of Indigenous dancers who find themselves thrown together on a performance tour of Europe The Tour is all prepared. The Prairie Chicken dance troupe is all set for a fifteen-day trek through Europe, performing at festivals and cultural events. But then the performers all come down with the flu. And John Greyeyes, a retired cowboy who hasn't danced in fifteen years, finds himself abruptly thrust into the position of leading a hastily-assembled group of replacement dancers. A group of expert dancers they are not. There's a middle-aged woman with advanced arthritis, her nineteen-year-old niece who is far more interested in flirtations than pow-wow, and an enigmatic man from the U.S. -- all being chased by Nadine, the organizer of the original tour who is determined to be a part of the action, and the handsome man she picked up in a gas-station bathroom. They're all looking to John, who has never left the continent, to guide them through a world that he knows nothing about. As the gang makes its way from one stop to another, absolutely nothing goes as planned and the tour becomes a string of madcap adventures. The Prairie Chicken Dance Tour is loosely based -- like, hospital-gown loose -- on the true story of a group of Indigenous dancers who left Saskatchewan and toured through Europe in the 1970s. Dawn Dumont brings her signature razor-sharp wit and impeccable comedic timing to this hilarious, warm, and wildly entertaining novel.
