| Description: | DANCING DAUGHTERS (JUNIOR) Girls' dance class. Miss Boyle's dancing school in Highgate is featured - cute dancing by young star-struck girls. Highgate, London, England MLS girls of various ages (5-10?) wearing short dresses w/ flared skirts, dance as partners around the dance studio a very sprightly dance. Wait! it looks like there's one boy! Some older girls sit on floor in FG, in BG an accompaniest plays piano and some more girls stand by windows. Dance teacher Miss Boyle helps the smallest pair of girls through the steps as the rest of the class stands around edge of floor watching. 2 teenage girls perform a dance with acrobatics. One girl does walkovers across floor while the other does very simple step at side. Then as the 2nd girl starts to twirl across floor- -she disappears! or at least fades out while image of the 2 dancing together fades in. Next they both do 1-handed cartwheels across floor, then hold hands while doing grande battements (high kicks), then slide down into the splits, one right behind the other. While all this is going on a row of other girls stand in BG. Next these girls dance themselves; they are wearing white dresses with ruffled skirts and funny top hats. They come dancing in a row toward camera, chorus line style, then all collapse on the floor; while they're all sitting cross-legged a row of smaller girls in the same costumes come dancing in from rt. they do a cute dance with more jazz/stage dance steps.
