The London Contemporary Dance Theatre was celebrated internationally for the choreographic invention that flowed out of it and for the technical and artistic power of its dancers. When the company declined and finally ceased to perform it seemed that there must follow the loss of a body of knowledge, and this book is a search for the company's hidden legacy. Many of those connected with the company are interviewed, including Christopher Bannerman, Christopher Bruce, Richard Alston, Robert North, Sean Feldman, Janet Eager, and Robert Cohan.
