A vibrant illustrated book about the epic battle and dramatic turnaround of Agnes de Mille, the legendary choreographer of Oklahoma! and Carousel, whose work changed the course of Broadway history.

Something new is about to happen, something exceptional. In a dusty Californian town, Agnes de Mille dreams of becoming a dancer. She rides off to New York, then to London, performing a show here, a dance there, combining old moves with new ones. But no one knows what to make of Agnes. She is neither a ballerina, nor a modern dancer, nor a folk dancer. So, what is she? Then one summer, she watches a rodeo, where the strong and uninhibited movements of the cowboys transform her life – and the history of dance – forever.
