Description

Carol Easton (au). The first comprehensive biography of the woman who changed the world of dance. Pioneering a distinctive American style that combined elements of mdoern dance & ballet with a traditional folk idiom, Agnes de Mille popularized what had been an elitist art & irrevocably changed the American musical theater with her dances for Oklahoma!, Carousel, Brigadoon, & other smash Broadway musicals. Two of her ballets, Rodeo, & Fall River Legend, are timeless classics. Drawing on unpublished papers & extensive interviews with friends, colleagues, relatives, & de Mille herself, Easton takes us behind the scenes with Agnes. “Absorbing, enjoyable & thought-provoking.” B&W photos.
