Dear Students,
I just posted the article on “Dance Critiques” on the Readings page. Pages 92-99 give you a check list for the essay, rubrics for a dance critique as well as a sample dance review. Unfortunately, some of the pages did not come out that well in the pdf. I will give you a photocopied hand-out of this material tomorrow in class.
See you tonight at the City Center. I will post directions in a separate e-mail.
Best wishes,
Clare Carroll
