The CNDO transcripts

DVD-ROM: 12 Monographs in e-book form on one DVD-ROM. Average length: 20 pages each.
Over twelve months, through 1991 and 1992, the Center for New Dance Development (CNDO), in Arnhem, The Netherlands, in collaboration with the Arts Documentation Unit, U.K., undertook to interview the contemporary dancers and related artists who were teaching residencies at the Centre during that time.
In all, some 36 artists from Europe, the United States and Canada, were asked to describe their work and its current development. The intention was to provide a snap-shot of some of the concerns of a generation of dancers in the early 1990s. From this material, separate monographs by dancers and related artists have been produced. (1993)

Hutch, Johnny (1994)
Acrobatic and vaudeville routines
150 minutes |
|
Johnny Hutch was apprenticed to an Arab acrobat troupe in 1927, at the age of 11. Sixty-seven years later his energy remains unabated as he continues to pass on his encyclopedic knowledge of acrobatic and vaudeville routines to groups ranging from The Kosh and The People Show to the RSC and the Royal National Theatre.
In this DVD-ROM, recorded at The London Studio in September 1994, he teaches a group of performers some of these skills. Nearing 80, he says that this has been his last workshop. We doubt it. (1994)
