FYI:

I just found out Twyla Tharp published a new book.  She writes about the process of choreographing Movin Out in there. (She mentions that if they had called it a ballet they thought no one would come.)  She describes the successes and failures along the way.  That chapter looked good.  I hope it sells well. Its on book shelves  in a store near you.

Actually, this book has been out for a while.  I believe the paperback edition has just been released.

She addresses such a complex issue, so expect that the book has some interesting -- maybe even useful -- insights.

Yes., I did notice that the publish year was 2002 and yet I'd never seen  or heard oof it before now.

It's always nice to have a heads-up, perky.  I hadn't heard of it, myself (or if I aw notice of it, whichI might have, it slipped my mind).
