Stars of the Summer Night: A Glimpse into the Summer Dance School Offered by Florence Rogge, Ted Shawn, Leon Leonidoff, and Bill Robinson in New York City, 1931 This evocative photograph captures the essence of the Summer Dance School that was offered by an esteemed group of dance luminaries in New York City during the summer of 1931. The stars of the moment, Florence Rogge, Ted Shawn, Leon Leonidoff, and Bill Robinson, are seen here in an idyllic outdoor setting, surrounded by the twinkling lights of the night sky. Florence Rogge, a renowned modern dancer and choreographer, Ted Shawn, the founder of the Martha Graham Dance Company, Leon Leonidoff, a Russian-born dancer and choreographer, and Bill Robinson, an iconic tap dancer and actor, came together to provide an unparalleled dance education experience. The school, which was held at the legendary Tamiment Playhouse in the Catskill Mountains, attracted students from all over the United States and beyond. The photograph captures the excitement and energy of the summer dance season, with the dancers dressed in their best attire, ready to take the stage. The tuition for the summer program was reasonable, making it accessible to a wide range of aspiring dancers, and the classes offered covered a variety of dance styles, including modern, jazz, and tap. The 1930s were a golden age for dance in America, and this photograph provides a glimpse into the vibrant and dynamic dance scene that thrived in New York City during that time. The Stars of the Summer Night dance school offered an unforgettable experience for students, providing them with the tools and inspiration they needed to pursue careers in dance and entertainment.
