About

A thrilling look at the art of two legendary dancers. This live 1988 performance is in two parts. First, the premiere performance of Donald Saddler’s “The Rehearsal,” a thirty-minute dance piece created for Gregory and Bujones in which the two dancers reminisce about their careers and perform scenes from some of their greatest triumphs.

The second half is a fully-staged performance of Act III (“The Wedding”) from Coppélia as choreographed and staged by Roni Mahler (after Arthur Saint-Leon).

In additon, the DVD features a bonus interview with Cynthia Gregory from the series “Words on Dance.”
