Taking America's Story to the World”
Between 1958 and 1961, Jerome Robbins's Ballets: U.S.A. company toured to European arts festivals with a repertory of new and existing works, most of which remain in performance more than six decades later. Cold War political and artistic imperatives intersected in choreography that circulated visions of “American” innovation and youthful vitality, danced to an eclectic range of scores by a mixed-race cast. Archival documentation of the funding p…

Constrained Bodies
The first part of the twenty-first century has been marked by particularly fraught social and racial tensions in the United States, brought to awareness internationally by the Black Lives Matter protest movement that started in 2014 and the vitriol espoused by the 2016 Republican presidential candidate. Randy Martin's work offers paradigms for interrogating the relationships between dance and its sociopolitical contexts that are highly relevant a…
Hip-Hop Dance Theatre in London
Programming schedules in the West End and other prominent London venues are increasingly featuring hip-hop dance productions, marking innovative forays into the mainstream performance field by a former subcultural style. Choreography by Rennie Harris in the USA and Jonzi D, Kate Prince, Sandy ‘H20’ Kendrick and composer Michael ‘Mikey J’ Asante in London offers material through which to consider developments in the theatricalisation of hip hop cu…
Defying Britain's Tick-Box Culture
With questions of identity and multiculturalism remaining at the centre of debates in the press, political and academia arenas, a dance production tackles these issues head on in a surprisingly humorous and accessible way. Birmingham-based Sonia Sabri Company's Kathakbox is a collaborative production exploring the theme of ‘ticking boxes’ which sets out to challenge preconceptions about identity. Four specialists in kathak, hip-hop, African Carib…
Guru or Teacher? Shishya or Student? Pedagogic Shifts in South Asian Dance Training in India and Britain
The guru-shishya parampara (teacher-disciple tradition) has underpinned training in South Asian dance for generations. This article examines aspects of the tradition which make it problematic in today's society and global diasporic context, particularly the gurukula system, in which the disciple spends extensive time with the guru. Fundamental aspects of the parampara continue to be perpetuated, however, in diverse teaching contexts in India, par…

Techniques and Institutions
In 1998, the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing (ISTD) created a South Asian Dance Faculty, expanding its range of dance styles for examination. The added imports of Bharatanatyam and Kathak are classical Indian dance forms which have transformed the face of British dance despite their relatively short history here. Inclusion of the new forms was initiated by Akādemi, a British South Asian dance organisation, with funding from the Arts Counc…

Dance and the Workers' Struggle
The decade of the Roaring Twenties is mythologised today as an era of abundance and carefree living in America. Social inequalities and tensions existed nevertheless, and the gap was growing wider between rich and poor, employer and employee. Awareness of these rifts in society, coupled with a loss of faith in humanity after the atrocities of World War I, paved the way for acceptance of the ideals of socialism as exemplified by the young Union of…
From Workers' Dance to New Dance
The revolution in dance marked by Martha Graham's 1926 concert and Doris Humphrey's 1928 concert gave rise shortly afterwards to another revolution unconcerned with inner landscape of personality and formal properties of movement, but using dance as a weapon to expose harsh realities of society in 1930s, and devastating social repercussions of 1929 stock market crash. Rumblings of discontent were evident in early years of resultant depression but…
