REPERTORY/ Splang

This dance was made by the dancers based on instructions given to them by Trisha Brown which begin as follows: “Step forward R, trip, run 3, jab-cross-nod as you back up. Turn L, run but stop abruptly in 3 feet.  Leap-skim-place a foot next to another foot.  Hit the floor hard, and pass through a sexy woman position and move stiff legged.  Take a hand, lean in, run 1, halt... - Description taken from Program Notes, Muhlenberg and Cedar Crest Colleges, 1978.
