Precision Performance
Wherever Jose Greco and his
troupe have traveled, they have re
ceived a resounding welcome, from
New York's m o s t sophisticated
hostelrys to the gambling palaces
of Las Vegas. For year, theater
critics have been searching for ade
quate words to describe the seem
ingly effortless precision of Greco's
performance.
Greco was born in the remote
village of Montorio in the Abruzzi
Mountains of northern Italy, and
it was there he first began to
imitate the fiery itinerant dancers
he saw perform in the village
enco square. He arrived in New York at
-e at the age of ten and continued to
study dancing.
Sometime later, Greco made his
debut in Bizet's opera "Carmen" at
New York's Hippodrome, then re
turned to five more years of danc
ing and studying. At the end of
this time he met "La Argentinita,-'

for her dancing artistry, and was
