hello fellow dancers
[edit] Dance History
Wikipedia needs more real dance history articles! Having biographical information concerning important figures is great, but there is definitely an unfilled need for more theory-based content.
Are there any devout Labanists out there? I'm doing an assignment on Laban and don't know where to begin....PLEASE HELP!!!!!!
[edit] Laban in Nazi Germany
There's nothing about his past as a Nazi at the moment. Laban was so highly regarded by e.g. Joseph Goebbels that he was planned to make opening coreography (sp?) for Berlin olympics in 1936. Also his task was to divide different dances between Aryan and non-Aryan. Like ballet was non-Aryan, but modern dance was seen as a way to remind people of their pure racial roots. --Ukas 20:29, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] re Laban
Hi, I just started adding some things about Laban: a few biographical notes to his page, and a new page about his long-time associate Lisa Ullmann. I'd like to add more dance articles too! Plus, Laban's relationship with the Nazis has recently been a hot discussion topic with members of the Laban Guild in UK, so hopefully more on that may come to the surface.
