#4: Waltz, Soft Shoe, Eccentric, Line, Misc.- 1931-1962 - Line Routines Index
Scope and Contents note
Five large loose-leaf notebooks and four smaller notebooks consisting of a range of informational outlines, instructions, and dance routines written and composed by different dancer teachers, including McRae. Most material mimeographed or typed, sometimes annotated and occasionally dated, often with accompanying music cited. The final four notebooks, labeled "Edna's Notes" or "Edna's Dances," are arranged chronologically, perhaps by use in a classroom setting. See Series 4: Personal Notebooks, for handwritten Class Notes. See also the Allison-McRae Studio records for many of McRae's choreographies with accompanying sheet music.
