Dance Fields Conference Boa NEW
Dance Fields Conference April 19th – 22nd 2017 Book of Abstracts (Chronologically listed) SESSIONSPANELSPRACTICALSWORKSHOPSROUND TABLES Thursday, April 20th 10:00 – 11:30 Session I Chair: Ann R. David Michael Huxley Dance Studies in the UK 1974-1984: A historical consideration of the boundaries of research and the dancer’s voice The first Study of Dance Conference was held at the University of Leeds in 1981. The following year saw the First Conference of British Dance Scholars in London, leading to the inauguration of the Society for Dance Research and then the publication of its journal, Dance Research. Since 1984, the field of dance studies in the UK has both developed and been debated. My paper draws on archival and other sources to reconsider this period historically. With the benefit of current ideas of what constitutes dance, practice, research, and history, it is possible to consider the early years of UK Dance Studies afresh. In the twenty-first-century there are some accepted notions of dance studies. I would argue that they have established boundaries, but that these are often unstated. The period is re-examined with a view to uncovering a broader, and indeed more inclusive, idea of dance studies. In this, attention is given to the researches of practitioners in the period; both published, including in New Dance, and unpublished. Whilst recognising the significant scholarship of the period, the paper also considers the ideas that dancers gave voice to. The analysis is taken further by considering the unexamined discourses that helped enable research in dance in the UK to develop in the way it did. -

Premium Rate Telephony and Associated Issues Final Report from the BBC Director General to the BBC Trust, May 2007 1. Introduction 1.1 Context Following a number of revelations and resulting investigations into broadcasters’ use of premium rate telephony, allegations about BBC activity in this area surfaced in late February of this year.

On 17 March the Daily Mirror made further allegations about audience deception in relation to a second children’s programme, Smile. This report seeks to provide for the Trust an overview of the issues surrounding the BBC’s use of premium rate phonelines and the particular incidents which have been investigated. It also provides an account of the actions that have and will be taken by the BBC in relation to the various concerns which have surfaced. 1.2 Investigative Work Undertaken The BBC has investigated each set of allegations as they have arisen and where issues have been identified has sought to address them comprehensively.

Gender and Sexuality in Joan Rivers' Stand-Up Comedy Performance Sharon Lockyer, B
From toothpick legs to dropping vaginas: Gender and sexuality in Joan Rivers’ stand-up comedy performance Sharon Lockyer, Brunel University Abstract This article employs sociocultural analysis to examine Joan Rivers’ stand-up comedy performances in order to reveal how she successfully operates in a sphere of artistic expression that has been, and continues to be, male-dominated. The analysis uncovers how Rivers’ stand-up comedy performance involves a complex combination of elements and how it fuses features that are regarded as ‘traditionally masculine’, such as aggression, with features frequently used by other female stand-up comedians, such as self-deprecating comedy and confessional comedy. Furthermore, the analysis exposes the complex ways in which constructions of gender and sexuality are negotiated and re-negotiated in Rivers’ stand-up comedy performance, and illustrates how dominant ideological identity constructions can be simultaneously reinforced and subverted within the same comic moment. Keywords gender sexuality stand-up comedy Joan Rivers self-deprecation ageing female body masculine discourses Introduction A large body of academic and industry-related evidence suggests that the stand-up comedyscape has always been, and continues to be, male-dominated (Channel 4 2010; Chortle 2011; Gray 1994; Nilsen and Nilsen 2000; Ross 1998; Zoglin 2009). Such male dominance is reflected in the number of male stand-up comedians compared with female stand-up comedians and the aggressive performative features that this form of artistic expression utilizes, which are often perceived as ‘traditionally male’. Despite this, female 1 stand-up comedians can, and do, penetrate this male-dominated industry and have successful stand-up comedy careers.
