Alison Cuddy Interview with Ruth Page Dancers

Thanks to Andy Resek (andyresek.com), we have this wonderful documentation of Alison Cuddy’s (WBEZ) interview with Ruth Page dancers, Delores Lipinski Long (Ruth Page Center for the Arts, Civic Ballet of Chicago) and Patricia Klekovic Irwin (Ruth Page Center for the Arts). Together, they discuss the behind-the-scenes dance culture that supported and defined the world of twentieth century dance generated by Chicago’s own prima ballerina and choreographer, Ruth Page. The interview took place at CFA’s November 2011 Fundraiser party, which spotlighted the life of Ruth Page, whose legacy now resides in one of CFA’s newest collections – The Ruth Page Collection.
