Abstract

A program produced for local access television in Trumbull County, Ohio, about the 1990 Celebration of Ballet, part of the annual Celebration on the Square held in the town square of Warren and featuring the Ohio Ballet. Following a brief introduction by host Rich Barnett, the first piece, Gravity, is performed. After its conclusion (14:40), Barnett takes viewers on a tour of historical sites in Warren and stops by a Revolutionary War reenactment. This is followed by the Ohio Ballet's second piece, Fantasy In F Minor (17:47). Immediately upon conclusion of the piece, there are a series of brief interviews with the committee members and sponsors of Celebration On The Square, leading directly into the third and final dance performance, Planes/Configurations (38:53).
