American Indian Dance Theatre - Kotuwokan!
"The American Indian Dance Theatre, founded in 1987 by playwright/director Hanay Geiogamah and produced by the late Barbara Schwei, is the country's leading Native American performing company. The 16-18 dancers, singers, and musicians have performed to acclaim in virtually every state of the Union and have toured to theatres and festivals in Europe, North Africa, the Middle East, and Australia, often with the support of the U.S. State Department.
"The company has taped two television specials for the PBS Great Performance Series, one of which was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award. Its multi-week engagements at the Joyce Theatre in New York City have regularly played to enthusiastic, sell-out audiences. In the last few seasons the troupe has performed in more than 50 cities from Hawaii to California to Illinois to New York, including a week-long engagement at the Kennedy Center and a three-week tour of the Northwest.
"The company's performers are drawn from as many as ten different tribes from across the nation.
"This video features dances from a full-evening production called "Kotuwokan," which translates to "come celebrate the dance" in the Algonquin language."

Attention! Ne consultez surtout PAS les archives des mois précédents! En effet, je publie tant d'articles par jour que le contenu d'un mois est énorme, et de consulter un mois passé risque de faire crasher votre ordinateur. Utilisez plutôt la fonction "rechercher" et "sur le blog" tout en haut de la page ou la fonction "Search this blog" de Technorati dans la colonne de droite; ou mieux encore, utilisez la fonction "CATEGORIES" qui se trouve dans la colonne de droite. Je suis en train de travailler sur une éventuelle solution pour les archives mensuelles.
Caution! Do NOT consult the archives of past months! Indeed, I post so much every day that the content of any given month is enormous, and to consult any previous month could cause your browser or even your computer to crash. Better use the "search this blog" function - either at the top of the page or the Technorati one in the right-hand column. Better still, you could also consult the "CATEGORIES" in the right-hand column. I am currently working on a possible solution for the monthly archives.
