Dancing and building are the two primary and essential arts. The art of dancing stands at the source of all the arts that expressthemselves first in the human person. The art of building, or architecture, is the beginning of all the arts that lie outside the person; and in the end they unite. Music, acting, poetry proceed in the one mighty stream; sculpture, painting, all the arts of design, in the other. There is no primary art outside these two arts, for their origin is far earlier than man himself; and dancing came first.

So a show like Dancing On The Edge gets to have a digital life after it's playing on Starz.

Just be very careful about drawing conclusions based on what you see.

The results will always be rewarding.

All of that. A celebration of love.
