Reworking the Ballet illuminates the choreographic praxis, the context and the politics of reworkings in the light of counter-canonical discourses as developed within feminism, queer theory and postcolonialism.

Dr. Vida L Midgelow is a Reader in Performance Studies and Dance at The University of Northampton, UK and Director of The Choreographic Lab. Her research activities cross between practice-as-research and traditional written modes. She has presented papers and toured her movement based works in the UK and internationally. She has particular expertise in current European dance practices, the radical reworking of the classics, gender and sexuality in performance, choreographic methodologies and improvisation. Her essay 'Decentred Bodies: Postfeminist Corporealities Dance' (in The Postfeminist Handbook, 2006) brings together several of these concerns. In recent years she has also made a number of choreographic installation pieces, these include; O (a set of footnotes to Swan Lake) and Threshold: Fleshfold.
