Abstract

Mikhail Baryshnikov and White Oak Dance Project rehearse "Blue Heron". While the footage is undated, this work was choreographed for White Oak Dance Project in 1994. This rehearsal consists of a complete run-through before the company repeats specific sections; there are quick edits and 'jump cuts' between these segments. Visual quality poor, with most of the footage in long shots. White Oak Plantation served as a 'home base' for the company.
