In dance, the choreographer creates, the dancer performs, and the
viewer observes. This work is a handbook for the viewer. By
presenting historical and artistic perspectives of dance, dance
events are made more approachable and appreciation for the art form
is heightened. The choreographic components of body language,
content, structure, music, design, and interpretation are included.
Also discussed is the development of critical reaction over time.
Examples are drawn from Western theatrical dance and worldwide
cultural variations. Terms are explained throughout the text, and
an extensive bibliography gives sources in print and on tape for
further study.
