Summary
Dancers John Parks, Daniel Duell, and Rose Marie Wright talk about the challenges and difficulties of making the transition from performing to second careers. Each recalls his/her own experiences as a dancer, Wright as a member of Twyla Tharp and Dancers, Parks with Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, and Duell with the New York City Ballet. Ipiotis contributes statistics about dancers' careers and second careers, and discusses existing sources of support. The many dance excerpts depict Wright in The Bix pieces, The fugue, All about eggs, and other choreography by Tharp; Parks is seen in Ailey's Revelations; and Duell is represented by his ballet De Falla divertissements, danced by the Ballet Hispanico.
