Choreography by Alwin Nikolais
Music, sets, costumes and lighting by Alwin Nikolais
The Joffrey Ballet of Chicago
From "The company" by Robert Altman
Choreographer Alwin Nikolais discusses the use of theatrical effects in dance productions. Host James Day discusses with Alwin Nikolais about his dance theater and the way he has revolutionized theatre. Topics honed in on are the strong feeling associated with dance and theater, the message of motion, and Nikolais' entry into the arts.
CUNY TV is proud to re-broadcast newly digitized episodes of DAY AT NIGHT, the popular public television series hosted by the late James Day. Day was a true pioneer of public television: co-founder of KQED in San Francisco, president of WNET upon the merger of National Educational Television (NET) and television station WNDT/Channel 13, and most recently, Chairman of the CUNY TV Advisory Board. The series features fascinating interviews with notable cultural and political figures conducted in the mid 1970's.

I believe his last name was Papp. He's a famous theater producer.
My reply to Micah Hejlik
I think you're right. There is a video on YouTube titled "Theater Talk: Joseph Papp & The Legacy of NYC's Public Theater, etc" and a photo they shows looks like the Joseph on this video. THANK you a lot for all your comments with names, song title, etc, and I appreciate your subscription on Aug. 10th very much.

Alwin Nikolais wove his magic through original and inventive choreography, sound scores, theatrical lighting and costuming. This centennial celebration, part of an international tour, offers Joyce audiences a rare opportunity to see some of the most imaginative works from a choreographer whose repertoire spanned over sixty spectacular years and helped shape the future of contemporary dance.
The works are performed under the artistic direction of Alberto Del Saz and Murray Louis by the Ririe-Woodbury Dance Company.

Alwin Nikolais (November 25, 1910 in Southington, Connecticut – May 8, 1993) was an American choreographer.
Nikolais studied piano at an early age and began his performing career as an organist accompanying silent films. As a young artist, he gained skills in scenic design, acting, puppetry and music composition. It was after attending a performance by the German dancer Mary Wigman that he was inspired to study dance. He received his early dance training at Bennington College from the great figures of the modern dance world: Hanya Holm, Martha Graham, Doris Humphrey, Charles Weidman, Louis Horst, and others.
In 1940, in collaboration with Truda Kaschmann, his first modern dance teacher, Nikolais received a commission to create Eight Column Line, his first ballet. The work was presented at one of the events of Hartford social season that counted Salvador Dalí and Léonide Massine as honorary patrons and was well received.

About this video: JOSEPH PAPP introduces honoree ALWIN NIKOLAIS (choreographer) at the 10th Kennedy Center Honors awards ceremony in 1987. JACQUES d'AMBOISE pays tribute to Alwin and introduces Alwin's dance production 'Tensile Involvement'. Could anyone help me with Joseph's last name? Thank you.
Micah Hejlik
I believe his last name was Papp. He's a famous theater producer.
My reply to Micah Hejlik
I think you're right. There is a video on YouTube titled "Theater Talk: Joseph Papp & The Legacy of NYC's Public Theater, etc" and a photo they shows looks like the Joseph on this video. THANK you a lot for all your comments with names, song title, etc, and I appreciate your subscription on Aug. 10th very much. (Note: Joseph Papp died in 1991 at the age of 70 - Courtesy of Wikipedia.).
Another note to Micah Hejlik:
Hi, guess what? I had thanked you for your comments, etc & subscription on Morgan Freeman's video but because of some 'glitch', it wouldn't print it there (part of the comment I just left here for you), so I came and posted it on this video, then noticed it went through THERE after all SO, NOW YOU HAVE A DOUBLE THANK YOU in the same words!!!

wn.com/Alwin Nikolais Honoree (Complete) 10Th Kennedy Center Honors, 1987 (57)
MESSAGE TO VIEWERS: [Click on "Show More" for rest of this message & description] I am sad to find out that several people have copied and re-posted most of my videos, using my exact same titles (this video is among over 400 videos that they have copied from me). The descriptions are either shown as I originally wrote them, partially shown, completely left out, or completely changed!! These copied videos often have different thumbnail pictures but sometimes they're the same. I have spent hundreds of hours preparing and uploading these videos and it is VERY UPSETTING & DISCOURAGING to discover this RAMPANT COPYING & RE-POSTING! It is just PLAIN MEAN! I would appreciate it very much if you would avoid any videos by "All Star Party" & "Kirdie Ferdin". Thanks to all of you for your views of my originally posted videos and your subscriptions to my channel. Sincerely, Violet Pearl. 4-17-2015
About this video: JOSEPH PAPP introduces honoree ALWIN NIKOLAIS (choreographer) at the 10th Kennedy Center Honors awards ceremony in 1987. JACQUES d'AMBOISE pays tribute to Alwin and introduces Alwin's dance production 'Tensile Involvement'. Could anyone help me with Joseph's last name? Thank you.
Micah Hejlik
I believe his last name was Papp. He's a famous theater producer.
My reply to Micah Hejlik
I think you're right. There is a video on YouTube titled "Theater Talk: Joseph Papp & The Legacy of NYC's Public Theater, etc" and a photo they shows looks like the Joseph on this video. THANK you a lot for all your comments with names, song title, etc, and I appreciate your subscription on Aug. 10th very much. (Note: Joseph Papp died in 1991 at the age of 70 - Courtesy of Wikipedia.).
Another note to Micah Hejlik:
Hi, guess what? I had thanked you for your comments, etc & subscription on Morgan Freeman's video but because of some 'glitch', it wouldn't print it there (part of the comment I just left here for you), so I came and posted it on this video, then noticed it went through THERE after all SO, NOW YOU HAVE A DOUBLE THANK YOU in the same words!!! By the way, in previous comment here I said "I think you're right - should have said "I know you're right".... thanks again.....
