Physical Description

Extent: 1 videocassette (VHS) (23 min.) : sound, color ; 1/2 in.

Abstract

Mikhail Baryshnikov and White Oak Dance Project rehearse "Punch and Judy Get Divorced". The rehearsal ends when the lights shut off prematurely: an audible 'eh, oops' is heard at this point. Visual quality, while noted as 'better' on the videocassette label, is actually quite poor. The rehearsal is recorded in a long shot; facial expressions and individual identities are difficult to discern. There is constant chatter throughout.
