Essay / Research Paper Abstract
Dance, and the need to dance is as old as civilization; as old as the drumbeat. Classical ballet is the oldest of the dance traditions for theater and can be traced at least to 1489 in Tortona, Italy, or more familiarly and probably more accurately, to Catherine de Medicis's Ballet Comique de la Reine in 1581. Modern dance has it's beginnings in Isadora Duncan's London recitals in 1897. This 12 page paper explores the idea that throughout history dance has played an integral part in theater. Not only is it included, on occasion, in major dramatic productions but has developed into the primary form of expression in three styles of dramatic presentation: modern dance, Broadway musicals and ballet. Each of these styles has an honored place in the history of American theater and continues to have major impact within the entertainment and performing arts industry. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
