Dance Advance was formed by six ex-dancers from The Royal Ballet. The Company commissioned a new work from Kenneth MacMillan for their inaugural season in March 1988 and he created Sea of Troubles for them, a distillation of William Shakespeare's Hamlet. The correspondence in this file includes handwritten letters from Susie Crow, one of the Artistic Directors and dancers, to Deborah MacMillan about performances in the Isle of Wight and in Spain, to Kenneth MacMillan explaining why the Company had to cease existence, from Anglia television about including the ballet in the Folio series, a programme from the Festival de Otono, Spain, and some background information to the ballet.
