Book Chapter
Digital Dance Criticism
2023
Overview
Chapter 5 analyzes digital platforms in the twenty-first century and focuses on four sites that challenge assumptions about the disappearance of dance critics: On the Boards TV, thINKingDANCE, Black Dance Stories, and amara tabor-smith’s HouseFull of Blackwomen. If Black dancers have, historically and currently, been denied access to or misrepresented in the popular press, this chapter examines how these sites reframe the conversation and center distinct voices and experiences. This is the redesigning of the choreographic apparatus, which has, for decades, focused on aesthetics and value systems that elevate the work of white artists. While attending to the ways these platforms address and challenge systemic exclusions that have pervaded criticism in the popular press, this chapter also examines affordances of the digital realm, such as the sharing of video and film, and how these circulations transform today’s purposes and functions of dance criticism.
