THESE PROGRAMS… Deepen significance to performances through opportunities to engage with artists Inspire youth and local artists through training and performance opportunities Provide exposure to the arts through access initiatives Dance Styles Contemporary Spectrum Dance Theater Academy Contemporary dance is commonly understood as the fusion of Ballet and Modern dance styles with a heavy in8luence of current musical composition. Ballet provides Contemporary dancers with the technical foundation and knowledge required for the movement of this dance style. Modern inspires the emotion, movement and style components. Contemporary dance has grown and continues to evolve in the dance community, becoming one of the most popular dance forms among dancers and audience members. Hip Hop Northwest Tap Connection Hip Hop dance originated in the United States in the 1970s on the streets of inner city America among the young African American community. This dance style was inspired by 1920s jazz dances, such as the Lindy Hop. The combination of intricate footwork from earlier dance styles with the innovative music of the 1970s resulted in the new dance culture of Hip Hop. Over time, this genre has extended to many cultural groups around the world, especially Asian American, Hispanic, African American and Caucasian communities. Hip Hop has evolved and moved into mainstream media, constantly exciting youth across the globe. Dance Styles African African Journey The culture of dance is a central focus of the African lifestyle. Dance teaches social patterns and values while helping young individuals grow and mature within their communities. Different styles of African dance are performed at celebrations, festivals, or funerals to recite history, poetry, and encounter gods that are representative of the African culture. The dance is extremely physical and involves the entire body, being representative of the music that is created from either human voice or authentic musical instruments, such as African drums. Ballet International Ballet Theatre Ballet originated in the Renaissance court of Italy and France in the early 1400’s, but became a performance art to be enjoyed by an audience in the 17th century during the reign of Louis XIV. This dance form has developed immensely since its beginning, acting as the technical foundation for the majority of popular dance genres such as contemporary, jazz, and musical theatre. There are many variations of ballet that are studied and performed today, including folk, which will be performed by International Ballet Theatre. Dance Styles Mexican Bailardores de Bronce Mexican dance is known to be a blending of movement and elements that stem from the country’s history and indigenous heritage. There is a great amount of African and European in8luence in the physical and technical aspects of the Mexican dance form. Different movement and style aesthetics are often representative of the region in Mexico that it was originally created and performed. Mexican dance involves an immense amount of energy and historical pride to entertain the audience and represent the country’s history. Philippines Kalahi Philippine Dance Company There are many different styles of Philippine folk dance, but speci8ically Singkil and Tinikling are styles being performed by Kalahi Philippine Dance Company. Singkil, based on the Darangan, the Mindanao epic, revolves around the amorous exploits of a prince, who falls in love with a lovely princess. Tinikling, originated in the Visayan Islands, on the Island of Leyte. The dancers imitate the tikling bird's legendary grace and speed as they walk between grass stems, run over tree branches, or dodge bamboo traps set by rice farmers. Dance Styles Garba and Raas UW DangeRAAS Dawgs Both Garba and Raas are forms of Indian dance originating in the state of Gujarat, India. Garba is traditionally performed in a circular formation while Dandiya Raas involves dancing with sticks, which are used to represent swords. Both dances are culturally signi8icant because of their regional and religious aspects. Garba/Raas is performed to honor the Hindu goddess Durga and to celebrate life. These dances are typically performed during festivals like Navaratri and wedding ceremonies. Musical Theatre CORE Theatrics Musical Theatre is a style of dance that is most often enjoyed by audiences viewing a Broadway Musical production. The dance style incorporates theatrics that follow a speci8ic story line and musical score. The movement is derived greatly from technical ballet and jazz, and is often very physically demanding. This dance form adds an additional artistic layer to musical productions in order to tell a story to the audience by incorporating music, acting, and dance.

(August 2012) Evleen Michelle Nasir, B.A., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Kirsten Pullen There is a discursive formation of incapability that surrounds senior women’s sexuality. Senior women are incapable of reproduction, mastering their bodies, or arousing sexual desire in themselves or others. The senior actresses’ I explore in the case studies below insert their performances of self and their everyday lives into the large and complicated discourse of sex, producing a counter-narrative to sexually inactive senior women. Their performances actively embody their sexuality outside the frame of a character. This thesis examines how senior actresses’ performances of sexuality extend a discourse of sexuality imposed on older woman by mass media. These women are the public face of senior women’s sexual agency.

    Indian Classical Dance Is a Relatively New Umbrella Term for Various Codified Art Forms Rooted in Natya, the Sacred Hindu Musica

    CLASSICAL AND FOLK DANCES IN INDIAN CULTURE Palkalai Chemmal Dr ANANDA BALAYOGI BHAVANANI Chairman: Yoganjali Natyalayam, Pondicherry. INTRODUCTION: Dance in India comprises the varied styles of dances and as with other aspects of Indian culture, different forms of dances originated in different parts of India, developed according to the local traditions and also imbibed elements from other parts of the country. These dance forms emerged from Indian traditions, epics and mythology. Sangeet Natak Akademi, the national academy for performing arts, recognizes eight distinctive traditional dances as Indian classical dances, which might have origin in religious activities of distant past. These are: Bharatanatyam- Tamil Nadu Kathak- Uttar Pradesh Kathakali- Kerala Kuchipudi- Andhra Pradesh Manipuri-Manipur Mohiniyattam-Kerala Odissi-Odisha Sattriya-Assam Folk dances are numerous in number and style, and vary according to the local tradition of the respective state, ethnic or geographic regions. Contemporary dances include refined and experimental fusions of classical, folk and Western forms. Dancing traditions of India have influence not only over the dances in the whole of South Asia, but on the dancing forms of South East Asia as well. In modern times, the presentation of Indian dance styles in films (Bollywood dancing) has exposed the range of dance in India to a global audience. In ancient India, dance was usually a functional activity dedicated to worship, entertainment or leisure. Dancers usually performed in temples, on festive occasions and seasonal harvests. Dance was performed on a regular basis before deities as a form of worship. Even in modern India, deities are invoked through religious folk dance forms from ancient times.

    In Flight: Contemporizing Winged Motifs in Philippine

    IN FLIGHT: CONTEMPORIZING WINGED MOTIFS IN PHILIPPINE FOLK DANCE FOR THE CANADIAN STAGE PAULO PEREZ ALCEDO A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF FINE ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN DANCE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTRARIO APRIL 2021 © PAULO ALCEDO, 2021 ii Abstract This thesis is a choreographic and filmic exploration of contemporizing selected Philippine folk dances that have winged motifs. It examines dance rehearsals as a site for ethnographic research. Metaphors of birth, growth, life, immigration, struggle, failures, resilience, and hope will be manifested and expressed. The output of this research is a dance film. Titled In Flight, it critically responds to themes of isolation, limited movements, the precarity of flight, restricted travel, acts of transferring from one place to another, and the ways in which dance artists adapt to quarantined movements of life. Its aim is to identify an increased knowledge of natural movement of the avian species paralleled or in discussion with how humans translate the naturally occurring movements of birds into human expressions and dances. Keywords: Philippine folk dance, contemporizing traditional dances, winged motifs, avian species, COVID-19, isolation, precarity of flight, dance ethnography iii Dedication This thesis is dedicated to my late sister Lara. Thank you for sparking my love of dance. Thank you for your unconditional love even if it was cut short. I wish you were here to bear witness to my own flight as a dancer and now a choreographer. I also dedicate this thesis to my brother Patrick who paved the way for me to pursue my graduate studies.
  • The Musical Number and the Sitcom

    The Musical Number and the Sitcom

    ECHO: a music-centered journal www.echo.ucla.edu Volume 5 Issue 1 (Spring 2003) It May Look Like a Living Room…: The Musical Number and the Sitcom By Robin Stilwell Georgetown University 1. They are images firmly established in the common television consciousness of most Americans: Lucy and Ethel stuffing chocolates in their mouths and clothing as they fall hopelessly behind at a confectionary conveyor belt, a sunburned Lucy trying to model a tweed suit, Lucy getting soused on Vitameatavegemin on live television—classic slapstick moments. But what was I Love Lucy about? It was about Lucy trying to “get in the show,” meaning her husband’s nightclub act in the first instance, and, in a pinch, anything else even remotely resembling show business. In The Dick Van Dyke Show, Rob Petrie is also in show business, and though his wife, Laura, shows no real desire to “get in the show,” Mary Tyler Moore is given ample opportunity to display her not-insignificant talent for singing and dancing—as are the other cast members—usually in the Petries’ living room. The idealized family home is transformed into, or rather revealed to be, a space of display and performance. 2. These shows, two of the most enduring situation comedies (“sitcoms”) in American television history, feature musical numbers in many episodes. The musical number in television situation comedy is a perhaps surprisingly prevalent phenomenon. In her introduction to genre studies, Jane Feuer uses the example of Indians in Westerns as the sort of surface element that might belong to a genre, even though not every example of the genre might exhibit that element: not every Western has Indians, but Indians are still paradigmatic of the genre (Feuer, “Genre Study” 139).

    Interweaving Indigenous Philippine Dance and Music and Western Classical Music for Recovery and Wellbeing

    Creative Arts Educ Ther (2017) 3(2):47–59 DOI: 10.15212/CAET/2017/3/6 Rising After the Storm: Interweaving Indigenous Philippine Dance and Music and Western Classical Music for Recovery and Wellbeing 暴风雨后的崛起：交织菲律宾本土舞蹈、音乐和西方古典音乐 以期康复和健康 Gina Alfonso Cartwheel Foundation, Philippines Abstract Long-term recovery programs for the survivors of typhoon Haiyan – as it struck the Philippines in 2013 – were inevitably characterized by a convergence of Eastern and Western approaches to health and wellness due to the sectors involved in the process. Local community volunteers and local/international non-profit organizations joined forces to offer socio-emotional support to over 100 families of Tagbanua heritage on three islands in the area of Culion, Palawan, Philippines. This paper presents the blending of Eastern and Western perspectives on post-traumatic symp- toms, on well-being and on the human condition. The combined spirit of compassion and bayani- han (a Filipino term for togetherness in common effort) shared by the relief workers and the Tagbanua is also described. Narratives about the unexpected discovery of inherent indigenous ways of coping through dance – and a therapeutic encounter that involved a dialogue between Tagbanua and Western classical music – are highlighted as examples of the interweaving of art- based healing practices from the East and West which contributed towards recovery and the restoration of health.

Though the style of Bharatnatyam is over two thousand years old, the freshness and lavishness of its embodiment has been held even today. The strategy of human development which Bharatnatyam takes after can be followed back to the fifth Century A.D. from sculptural proof.
