>I read somewhere about a documentary made in the UK, called "Men in Tights." It's about a choreographer who taught a bunch of "geordie" shipyard workers how to dance ballet. >I would love to see this movie. Does anybody know where I could get a video of it in the US (NTSC) format?

Hi,   This was a TV documentary not a movie so it won't be available on vid.  it followed Daniel Jones, a dancer with English National Ballet as he trained hardened shipyard workers on Tyneside in the UK.  These were tough, hetrosexual guys but they certainly rose to the challenge.  But I think the hardest part was having to perform a new ballet on a special stage built at the shipworks in front of all their workmates.  They learnt that ballet was a lot tougher than they'd imagined and found they had a lot of respect for Daniel.

If you go to www.ballet.co.uk you'll find Daniel Jones' diary and somewhere in that he talks about the experience.  I think there's also a photo.
