Biographical / historical:
From 1948 to 1968, festival performances were held during the last part of the dance school's six-week course and were open to the public as well as the dance school community. For several years, the performances were held during the last week or extended weekend of the school. Gradually, performances began to be held during the last two or three weeks. Beginning in 1972, performances were given throughout the summer. In 1976 and 1977, ADF also held a public performance season in Newport, Rhode Island, in addition to the regular season in New London, Connecticut.
