Dance Data Project® released its sixth comprehensive report today, this time examining gender equity in spring/summer dance festival leadership and programming. For the first time in a DDP study, women make up a sizable majority in the category of artistic direction. As always, sources and limitations are cited at the end of the report.
DDP announces its participation in the Barkeley Haas’ Center for Equity, Gender, and Leadership Consulting Projects Course.
Kim Elsesser talks to DDP Founder & President Liza Yntema and reveals the issue plaguing ballet (and other fields) to a broad audience for Forbes.
DDP’s Founder shares her thoughts on male-domination in dance leadership and why everyone outside of the dance world should be concerned, too.
The following is a report on the gender distribution of repertoire within the Top 50 domestic companies’ 2018-2019 seasons. The data is separated into three subsections: Gender Distribution in Seasonal Repertoire, World Premieres, and Comparison of 2018-2019 Seasons to 2019-2020 Seasons. DDP cites sources and expresses limitations at the end of the report.
