Summary
In an interview conducted at her New York home, Agnes de Mille discusses The informer, her most recent ballet for American Ballet Theatre. Some topics covered in the discussion include dramatic expression in ballets by de Mille, Antony Tudor, Jerome Robbins, and others; her choreography for the musical Juno, the antecedent of The informer, which was based on Sean O'Casey's Juno and the paycock; Anna Pavlova's impact on her; dramatic timing; her early dramatic ballets, especially Stagefright; and her concept of the role of the Cowgirl in Rodeo. Commentaries by Terry Orr and Martha Johnson, respectively balletmaster and rehearsal pianist with American Ballet Theatre, are interspersed with the interview.
