- 1 videocassette (U-matic, NTSC) (47 min.) : sd., col.; 3/4 in.
- Summary
- Choreographer Agnes de Mille delivers a speech on the arts in America and the American attitude towards the arts. Beginning with a condemnation of President Ronald Reagan's cuts in federal funding for the arts, she traces the history of the American notion that the arts are luxuries rather than necessities; compares American arts subsidies unfavorably to those of various European nations; notes the negative impact of unionization on the economics of the theater, her special field of interest; and lists the spiritual and aesthetic qualities that Americans have lost through their overreliance on science and technology.
