Considering the availability of film material, the course focuses primarily on the Baroque theatre period, the location of dance in it, including an introduction to theatre, machinery, etc. The pre-Romantic ballet period (historicizing this version of ballet is futililty); the romatic period is extensively represented including issues in training and a presentation of Romantic ballet references. The semester closes with an introduction to the phases of late-Romantic ballet (ex: thorugh modern versions of the ballet Excelsior).
