Critical Correspondence

National Dance Report

In an effort to get an accurate portrait of the national dance scene, Critical Correspondence has begun contacting various artists and arts organizers in cities around the country to tell their stories. Too often, we don’t have a sense of what is going on at the local level on the national scene. This research project attempts to increase dialogue between American cities and other dance hubs, and to shed light on the numerous, varied and creative ways artists have sought to connect themselves to a sense of place and how that influences and informs their work (as well as how the work influences and informs the place).
