The Bates Dance Festival, held annually at Bates College, is the
leading presenter of contemporary dance in northern New England
during the summer. The Festival is an intensive five-week series
which brings together more than 60 artistically and ethnically
diverse dance artists with 345 students to study, perform and
create new work in contemporary, world and traditional dance. Since
its founding in 1982, the Festival has grown into a nationally
recognized program known for its community projects, supportive and
noncompetitive environment, and performances by important
contemporary artists.
The Bates Dance Festival is comprised of four related programs:
the Young Dancers Workshop (YDW), a rigorous two-week program
serving pre-professional dancers ages 13-17 co-directed by Laura
Faure and Michael Foley (1996-ongoing); the Three-Week Professional
Training Program serving dancers ages 18 and up; a main-stage
performances series featuring renowned contemporary dance artists
from around the world; and community outreach activities, including
the Youth Arts Program serving local youth ages 6-17 with dance and
music training, and the Community Dance Project that invites local
residents to participate in an intensive creative collaboration
with a choreographer and Festival dancers. Commissioning and
residency projects, including the International Visiting Artists
and the Emerging Choreographer's programs, support new works by
established companies, emerging choreographers, and international
artists.
The Festival began in the fall of 1982 when Thomas Hedley
Reynolds, president of Bates College, encouraged Marcy Plavin,
Director of Dance, to create a summer dance program on campus. The
Festival was borne of Plavin's desire to create "an intensive
3-week program in dance offering opportunities to study with
today's leading teachers and choreographers...[in] daily classes
and workshops in modern dance, ballet, jazz, composition,
repertory, dance history and criticism, and movement analysis." The
first festival was a small, regionally based program with 70
students and five classes a day.
From 1983 to 1987, more students were attracted to the festival
and the faculty steadily increased to meet this demand. Plavin
served as co-director of the Festival with Frank Wicks from 1983 to
1984 and as Dean of the Festival from 1984 to 1987. Andrea Stark
served as Festival Director from 1984 to 1985, followed by
Elizabeth Zimmer who served from 1985 to 1987. During the 1986
Festival, Raymond Dionne was hired as marketing coordinator. Zimmer
and Stark were each under a contract that covered part-time duties
pre- and post-festival; during the festival, they were employed
full-time. Laura Faure was contracted as Director beginning with
the 1988 festival, and was hired by Bates College on March 6, 1989
as a full-time employee. In 1999, intern Alison Hart was hired by
the college as assistant to the director and registrar for festival
programs, and was followed by Nancy Salmon.
The director and assistant director are the only full-time staff
members who support the festival. Additional support is received
from work-study students and contracted summer staff, including Box
Office Manager Bill Doolin (1996-ongoing), Technical Director David
Covey (2000-ongoing), Dance Historian/Lecturer Suzanne Carbonneau
(Levy) (1983-1987 and 1992), and professional videographer Peter
Richards (2001-ongoing). A program of the Bates College Office of
Special Projects and Summer Programs from its inception until 2003,
the Festival is now under the auspices of the Dean of Faculty.
Many top American and international choreographers and dance
artists have performed at the festival over the years, including
Dan Wagoner and Dancers, Bebe Miller Company, Eiko and Koma, Liz
Lerman Dance Exchange, David Dorfman Dance, Doug Varone, and Rennie
Harris Pure Movement among many others. Dance company
choreographers and dancers teach classes, rehearse in Bates
facilities including Plavin Studios, Chase Hall, Alumni and Merrill
Gymnasiums, and the Olin Arts Center and in community centers like
Lewiston Public Library and the New Life Center on College Street,
and perform repertory and new pieces for students and the public
throughout the festival. The majority of the faculty performs in
"Moving in the Moment," an improvisational dance and music
performance. Faculty members generally meet to plan a bit of
structure or a theme for the evening, but all the music and
movement are created on the spot. Another annual event, the
Musician’s Concert, showcases the compositions and
improvisations of ten or more festival musicians in residence. The
"Different Voices" concert showcases a number of artists, including
the International Visiting Artists and the Emerging Choreographers.
Before the performances, dance historian Suzanne Carbonneau (Levy)
presents "Inside Dance" lectures about the performers' work for
anyone who wishes to attend. She also writes program notes on
select artists for inclusion in the program.
Students of the Festival can chose from a wide range of classes
in Modern, Ballet, Jazz, Hip Hop, Improvisation, Repertory,
Somatics, Pedagogy, Creative Process, and more. Over 32 classes are
offered each summer. Evenings are filled with rehearsals,
performance opportunities, talks and lectures with faculty, jam
sessions and informal gatherings. The last Saturday of the
festival, students perform repertory works created in collaboration
with visiting choreographers at the Festival Finale in Alumni
Gymnasium.
Participants of all ages attend the festival each summer. The
student body is made up equally of students from college dance
programs, dance educators, and professionals. Nearly 40% of
participants receive some assistance to attend through merit and
work study scholarships. The festival also offers internships in
technical production, videography, dance education and arts
administration. Teacher fellowships are awarded to eight high
school dance teachers each summer. Awards are funded through a
variety of sources.
The collection documents the administrative, educational,
creative, outreach, and public relations aspects of the Bates Dance
Festival from its founding in 1982 until the present. There are
extensive administrative records, including student transcripts,
evaluations, and registration information; faculty contracts;
payroll information for faculty, staff and student assistants;
budgets; information about grants applied for and received from
state and national agencies; membership information; and course
descriptions and schedules. Publicity and marketing efforts are
documented in a separate series with that name which includes
newspaper and magazine clippings of articles and reviews about the
Festival, ads bought and sold by the Festival, press releases, and
correspondence with media contacts.
The Faculty and Creative Personnel series provides extensive
information about the instructors, performers, lighting designers,
accompanists, and other artistic individuals who are the lifeblood
of the Festival. The series is comprised largely of professional
publicity photographs; press kits with reviews and articles from
newspapers and magazines; curriculum vitae and other biographical
information; and correspondence with Festival staff. Two series,
Community Outreach and Special Projects, document ongoing programs
and special events sponsored by the Festival, often in
collaboration with other creative organizations, and with the
involvement with community groups and members. There is, for
example, extensive information about Doug Varone's work, "A
Momentary Order," which premiered at the Libbey Mill in Lewiston,
Maine in October 1992 and takes as its inspiration the
Franco-American culture of the Lewiston-Auburn area.
The collection also includes several format-specific series,
particularly Audio Recordings and Transcripts, Video Recordings,
Publications, and Concert Guides and Programs, which taken together
provide a multi-faceted, multi-media history of the Festival and
its creative output. There are transcripts of informal, yet
inspirational, artists' conversations, and video recordings of most
main stage performances, the annual Festival Finale, and the
improvisational "Moving in the Moment" faculty performance and
concert, among other events. The Photographs Series documents
Festival performances, rehearsals, and classes with mainly
informal, candid images. The Concert Guides and Programs and the
Publications series provide important background about events,
programs, classes, and projects.
The textual records along with the video and audio recordings
and photographs that comprise the collection ensure that the
important and original work performed and created at the Bates
Dance Festival will not be lost despite its ephemeral nature. From
the records, students can learn a choreographer's phrases, research
technical notes, or read reviews of past performers. Because
several dancers and choreographers have performed or taught at the
Festival many times over the years, it is even possible to chart
the artistic development of some of the most well-established and
best-known dancers in the country by consulting the records.
Faculty and staff contracts, student
transcripts, and some financial records are restricted for privacy
reasons. Consult the Archives staff for more information.
Video recordings are provided for
viewing purposes only and cannot be copied.

Faculty and Creative Personnel, 1984-ongoing
7 linear feet |
|
Scope and Content Note |
|
These files document the Festival's faculty and
other creative personnel, such as performers, lighting designers,
and accompanists. Files contain correspondence with Festival staff;
biographical notes and information, such as curriculum vitae;
course descriptions; headshots and other publicity photographs; and
press kits, which typically include reviews, pamphlets and other
ephemera, and biographies. The series provides extensive
information about how faculty is recruited and interacts with
Festival staff to develop each year's courses, programs, and
performances. Additionally, because some choreographers and dance
artists, including Dan Wagoner and Dancers, Bebe Miller Company,
Liz Lerman Dance Exchange, Doug Varone, David Dorfman, and Rennie
Harris Pure Movement have participated many times in the festival
over the years, the files document the artistic development of
these performers. |
|
Of particular note are transcripts of lectures by
dance historian Suzanne Carbonneau (Levy) about festival works and
performers delivered prior to the performance. These lectures,
which are geared toward a general audience, provide a contextual
basis from which to understand the work. |
|
The series also includes some general information,
such as form letter correspondence with faculty members and faculty
directories. One file, related to potential faculty, is restricted
for privacy reasons. Related faculty contracts and payment
information can be found in Series I: Administrative Files.
Additional photographs of performers taken at the Bates Dance
Festival can be found in Series XI: Photographs. |

Community Outreach, 1987-ongoing
1 linear foot |
|
Scope and Content Note |
|
This series documents the Festival's community
outreach activities, including the Youth Arts Program that serves
local youth ages 6-17 with dance and music training, and the
Community Dance Project that invites local residents to participate
in an intensive creative collaboration with a choreographer and
Festival dancers. There is significant documentation on Doug
Varone's "A Momentary Order" (1992), a dance made in collaboration
with scenic designer Power Boothe and composer Christopher
Hyams-Hart, which premiered at the WS Libbey Mill in Lewiston,
Maine on October 2, 1992. The work explores the Franco-American
roots and culture of the Lewiston-Auburn area, and brought together
a wide cross-section of participants, including artists, dancers,
musicians, craftspersons, and community groups and individual
members. The series also includes material related to Sara
Pearson/Patrick Widrig and Company's "If Wishes Were Horses,
Beggars Would Ride," a performance tour of dance, live music,
spoken word, video and photography and produced by the Festival in
collaboration with the Portland Museum of Art and the OnSite
Performance Network. This work premiered at the Portland Museum of
Art on May 10, 2000. |

The bulk of video recordings in this series are of

performed in Schaeffer Theater. There are also recordings of the
annual Festival Finale, in which students perform repertory pieces
learned during the Festival, and the children of the Youth Arts
Program perform their new creations. The faculty concert series,
"Moving in the Moment," is also recorded each year and is
represented here. Informal showings by national and international
visiting artists, artists-in-residence, emerging choreographers,
occasional workshops and classes are also represented. |
|
From 1984 to 1999, events were recorded using the
VHS format. In 2000, DVCPro large digital format was introduced,
although most events were still recorded in VHS format. Both DVC
Pro and mini-DVCam formats were used in 2001. The following year
and in subsequent years, events have been recorded exclusively in
the mini-DVCam format. Beginning in 2003, some "MainStage" concerts
were recorded from two different vistas in the theater. |
