Sinossi

Legendary Dance Feuds explores the dramatic conflicts behind the graceful facade of the dance world. It examines the intense rivalries that have fueled artistic innovation, revealing the high-stakes battles for recognition, funding, and artistic dominance. The book delves into how these clashes, whether between dancers, choreographers, or entire dance companies, have paradoxically served as catalysts for some of the most celebrated performances in ballet and modern dance.

 
The book uncovers the personal animosity between dancers, like the tension between Margot Fonteyn and Svetlana Beriosova, and the creative clashes between choreographers such as George Balanchine and Jerome Robbins. These rivalries, driven by ego, ambition, and differing artistic visions, shed light on the evolution of dance as an art form.

 
By examining these historical conflicts, the book provides insight into understanding the dynamics of competition in dance, and how these dynamics continue to resonate in contemporary dance. Beginning with an introduction to the core concepts of rivalry, the book progresses through sections on dancer rivalries, choreographer clashes, and company competitions.

 
Through biographies, critical reviews, and interviews, Legendary Dance Feuds connects these conflicts to broader themes in sociology, psychology, and arts management, ultimately demonstrating that competition, while destructive, can also be a powerful engine for progress.

Remission

Kirk Wood Bromley

This is a full recording of Daniel Martin Berkey performing the play Remission, which Backstage magazine called "mind-blowing" and NYTheater called "90 intense and harrowing minutes of spectacular wordplay." Written by playwright Kirk Wood Bromley ("Shakespeare on mushrooms" - LA Weekly), produced by NYC's Inverse Theater (“Best Downtown Theater Company" - NYPress 2001), scored by John Gideon, and originally performed by Berkey himself in the NYC Fringe Festival in 2009 (winning "Outstanding Solo Show"), Remission tells the story of Berkey’s journey into and out of schizophrenia in dramatic verse that one reviewer termed "a terrifying, violent freefall into insanity" (JustShowsToGoYou). 
With his symptoms beginning at age six, Berkey experienced a spectrum of challenges, including berating voices and haunting visions, paranoia and catatonia, and addiction to sex, heroin, and alcohol. Then, at the age of 51, homeless and deranged, while walking along a freeway on Long Island, he saw a vision – a giant golden cube suspended in the sky from which emanated 3000 winged humanoid figures beckoning him to join them in the World Self. Awaking from the splendor, he walked home, flushed his medications, and has been symptom-free ever since. 
And while this journey is central to Remission's narrative, the play is more than a retelling. With each line, the play "stretches, exercises, jolts, and exalts the audience" (NYTheater) by immersing it in an experience of actually having schizophrenia, creating a "one-of-a-kind, undiluted and unforgettable trip into the crazy." (JustShowsToGoYou).

The Word of Dog - What Our...

Mark Rowlands

A heartwarming philosophical meditation on how to live a fulfilling life—inspired by the inherent happiness of dogs. 
 
 
 
If you have spent any part of your life with a dog, you may have found certain questions popping, unbidden, into your mind: Is my dog living a fulfilled life? Is my dog a good dog? Does my dog love me? Addressing these questions compels you to confront not just your dog's life but yours as well—to think about what fulfillment, and meaning, in life really is. 
 
 
 
In The Word of Dog, philosopher Mark Rowlands explores these questions and suggests that in dogs we can see hints—faint, shrouded, but discernible—of what a better way of living might look like. Perhaps none of us can be happy in the way a dog can, but The Word of Dog shows us we could do a lot better than we're doing simply by listening to the unspoken wisdom our dogs reveal to us every day of their happy, uncomplicated lives.
