"Garafola's sense of discovery permeates the book and is one of its
chief pleasures. She is unusual among dance scholars in showing how
economics, revolution, racism and rank push and pull at the
sometimes insular theatrical world."--Monica Moseley, Associate
Curator, Dance Division, The New York Public Library
