This booklet focuses on the documentation of, access to, and preservation of dance heritage. It discusses the cultural and intellectual value of dance and articulates what elements of dance should be recorded and made accessible so that scholars, performers, creators, and the public can grasp fully the rich history of human expression embodied in dance. It also explores the various strategies used for making those resources accessible and the challenges of preserving the fragile media on which these sources are recorded.

Margaret Dale, adapting the stage to the screen: Aesthetic, appropriation, and intimacy in ballet programming for post-war BBC television. Master of Arts (Radio, Television and Film), December 2010, 149 pp., references, 71 titles. This thesis examines the aesthetic of ballets adapted for BBC Television by producer Margaret Dale, beginning with her entrance to the BBC’s training program in 1955 and culminating with her commissioned work Houseparty, which aired in 1964. A historical and organizational framework is discussed regarding the BBC’s cultural mission and view of arts programming, as well as general developmental milestones in programming contextualizing Dale’s working conditions. Particular focus is placed upon the appropriation of Romantic narrative ballets and their significance in reinforcing an aristocratic and culturally divisive structure in the arts. Textual analyses consider issues of restaging, camera placement, and lighting, as well as television’s intimacy and relationship to characterization in ballet narratives.

  • Tony Barrand by Allen Dodson
    “The dance should be in your body”—an Interview with Tony Barrand by Allen Dodson CDSS is proud to recognize Dr. Anthony G. (Tony) Barrand as the 2008 recipient of its Lifetime Achievement Award. Tony’s contributions have been numerous: he is a founder of the Marlboro Morris Ale; an archivist, historian and author on morris dance; and a singer of English and American song, both with John Roberts and as a member of the ensemble Nowell Sing We Clear. As a faculty member, first at Marlboro College in Vermont and later at Boston University, Tony has directed the work of many students who have contributed to our understanding of Anglo-American dance. In 1986 he was diagnosed with MS, which over time has curtailed his dancing but not his commitment and interest in filming dances and working with students. He currently is a faculty member in the University Professors Program at Boston University, and continues to perform with John and Nowell Sing We Clear. Tony has been involved with so many different dance activities and groups through the years, as well as singing solo and with others, that even in the course of a two hour interview it wasn’t possible to talk about all of them. What follows are excerpts from my interview with him at his house in October 2008. I’ve provided some notes to assist with context and to bridge between topics, but otherwise have let Tony speak for himself. ~ A.D. ALLEN: I remember reading a review of your Keele was very interested in bringing in ideas book Six Fools and a Dancer in an English from American small colleges into their publication which referred to you as “an program, and so had one year exchange Englishman who only learned Morris dancing programs with Swarthmore on the east coast once he moved to America.” Is that pretty much and Reed College on the west coast.
