- Summary
- Dancers Martine Van Hamel, a principal with American Ballet Theatre, and Hector Mercado, who now performs on Broadway, review some of the challenges and problems they have faced as performers over the years. Among these are overcoming physical deficiencies, competition, insecurity, typecasting, working for different choreographers, and aging. Van Hamel compares performing with the National Ballet of Canada and American Ballet Theatre; Mercado discusses dancing in the musical comedy Cats. In Esoterica balletica, costume designer Willa Kim tells how she created costumes for three ballets by Eliot Feld: Danzon cubano, Summer's lease, and Three dances.
