JEAN ERD MAN THEATER OF DANCE REPERTO RY As a choreographer and director Miss Erdman has worked in a great variety of environments, as she says, "always exploring new possibil ities for the dance stage." But, as environment is important, all the pieces on these programs were chosen because they were designed for a spacious, proscenium stage, and, coincidently this selection provides an overview of the span of her repertoire. THE PERILOUS CHAPEL premiered at her N. Y. debut concert was last seen in New York City on this very stage in 1952 when Merce Cunningham, Erick Hawkins, Dona ld McKayle and Miss Erdman were invited to present a showcase concert sampler as the pioneering performa nce that wou ld open the Academy to the dance world of greater New York - a project which has been continued with distinction in recent seasons.

However, in the earlier decades of the twentieth century black women were daily deflecting slings and arrows thrown at them from all sides. Arising out of this milieu of adversity were Josephine Baker, Katherine Dunham, and Pearl Primus, performing artists whose success depended upon a willingness to innovate, to adapt to changing times, and to recognize and seize opportunities when and where they arose. Baker introduced her performing skills to New York audiences in the 1920s, followed by Dunham in the 1930s, and Primus in the 1940s. Although these decades resulted in an outpouring of cultural and artistic experimentation, for performing artists daring to cross traditional boundaries of gender and race, the obstacles were significant.
