PALATINE

The Occupational Outlook Handbook, published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, has been a nationally recognized source of career information since the late 1940s. This pages are specfically about Dancers and Choreographers.

REVIEW: The ICCP provides an opportunity to work with the American Dance Festival. Described as a "greenhouse" for talented US dancers, the Festival offers time, resources, dancers and the freedom to allow dance to thrive. The International Choreography Residence Program (ICR) extends this opportunity to international artists. A link to the ICR (via the homepage) describes the program at Duke University, North Carolina. The pages are less about the practical details of application and selection onto the program than on the opportunities offered by the ADF. The ADF site contains archives, festival details, program details, discussion lists and links.

REVIEW: This page is an example of Artslynx filling gaps in on-line material. It is a very simple and limited page, relying on external material and suffering from too many failed links to be particularly useful. This may be an indication of the lack of biographical material on choreographers and composers on line. The links that do load connect to Compton's Encyclopeadia On-line and it may be better to start there.

REVIEW: Dance UK, a non-profit-making organisation, runs this service, and can provide lists of UK choreographers for specific projects. There is a telephone number to contact Dance UK who will discuss requirements and send a list of practitioners on a same day service. Choreographers can also register with the Directory here and the site includes a downloadable form to use to join the Directory.
