Fresh from a six weeks’ rep ertory season in New York City, the Dance Drama Group will pre sent an unusual program of dance styles, next Thursday evening, February 8, in the fifth presenta tion of the current Pinehurst Forum series. Because of the need for en larged stage facilities the perfor mance will be held in the grand ballroom of the Carolina Hotel at 9 p.m. A special dinner will be served to Forum members and their guests in the hotel dining room prior to the dance program. The Dance Drama Group, head ed by Miss Emily Frankel as featured dancer and director of the company, has been internation ally acclaimed. Appearances in Europe, South America and Can ada have been enthusiastically lauded by critics. Their repertoire includes a wide selection of dance styles. The program is divided into two parts. Program I is comprised i of three contrasting one-act i dance plays. The first, in a con temporary vein, is the comedic “Always Pierrot,” a modern-day spoof of the old-fashioned story of Harlequin, Columbine and Pierrot. The second play, “Romeo and Juliet,” is a romantic classic adapted to the famous Tschaikow- sky Overture Fantasia. The third is a dance drama based on the Tennessee Williams play, “Sum mer and Smokey.” Program II,. entitled “Ballet Divertissements,” features con trasting short and light works frorrij the repertorie. Especially notable are “Facades,” a repre sentation in movement of a chic cocktail party; “How It All Start ed,” a jazz-comedy pocket-sized version of the history of the world and how all our troubles began; and “Happening,” a spoof on beatnik art in which the dan cers create a “live” painting on stage. Dinner reservations at the ho tel can be made by calling Henry Kurtz, maitre-d-’hotel, at CYpress 4-2911.
