Hello, everyone, I am a new member from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I teach at LSU and am interested in all kinds of dance, especially ballet. Right now I am helping someone do research on dances that were created in oppression, disaster, or other dire circumstances (prison, concentration camps, house arrest, hospitals, etc. I would appreciate any leads you could send me. Thanks so much.

Does anyone know of any dances that were created in oppression, disaster, or other dire circumstances (prison, concentration camps, house arrest, hospitals, etc.)? Any kind of dance - ballet, modern or other?
