Patricia Miller is a ballerina with the Theatre Company of the famous Sadler's Wells Ballet. This is a group of enthusiastic young dancers who have come to London from all corners of the British commonwealth. Although many will later join the senior Sadler's Wells, the members of the Theatre Company are accomplished young artists in their own right (Julien Bryan "black book" film guide) These six films were made in 1948, but with the vision to portray the forces still transforming British society. The people whose daily lives are shown represent this new and dynamic Britain, rejecting the traditional shackles of class, economic stagnation, and complacent attitudes. The whole series makes up what we believe is the only film portrait of Britain ever made from an American point of view. Photographed and directed by Kenneth Richter (1964 IFF catalog).
