serpentine dance
The serpentine dance is a form of dance that became popular throughout the United States and Europe in the 1890s, that became a staple of stage shows and early film.
==Background==
The Serpentine is an evolution of the skirt dance, a form of burlesque dance that had recently arrived in the United States from England. Skirt dancing was itself a reaction against "academic" forms of ballet, incorporating tamed-down versions of folk and popular dances like the can-can.〔
The new dance was originated by Loïe Fuller, who gave varying accounts of how she developed it. By her own account, which is widely reported, having never danced professionally before, she accidentally discovered the effects of stage light cast from different angles on the gauze fabric of a costume she had hastily assembled for her performance in the play ''Quack M.D.'', and spontaneously developed the new form in response to the audience's enthusiastic reaction upon seeing the way her skirt appeared in the lights.〔 During the dance she held her long skirt in her hands, and waved it around, revealing her form inside.〔
