New Zealand School of Dance

"This book covers the School's first 50 years, from establishment in 1967 as the National School of Ballet to its recent history providing training in classical ballet and contemporary dance to prepare dancers for professional careers. It highlights dance luminaries who have taught at the School, and had an impact on our national dance culture, including directors Sara Neil, Russell Kerr, Dorothy Daniels, Philip Chatfield, Rowena Jackson, Anne Rowse, Rochelle Zide-Booth and Garry Trinder. Tracing the School's changes of venue in Wellington, student achievements and milestones, the book culminates in a gallery of images by photographer Stephen A'Court. It is published in the 50th anniversary year as a celebration of the School and all who have been associated with it"--Publisher information.
