5.0 out of 5 stars
An engrossing history of a most important American dance co.,
By Karenatasha "karenatasha" (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Joffrey Ballet: Robert Joffrey and the Making of an American Dance Company (Paperback)
A fascinating, incredibly well-researched history of the Joffrey Ballet -- and its place in American dance. I myself had worked as an intern backstage there when I was younger, and I must say it really captured the company's spirit and the personalities of the major players, such as Mr. Joffrey and Gerald Arpino. Answalt has a knack for presenting the complexities of running a dance company in the US and for fairly examining the disputes between artists and board members that nearly destroyed the Joffrey. If I have any quibble at all, and it is small, it is that from time to time certain events are a little rushed and merit more detail. But that's a small problem, indeed.
