Insights: Black Dancers in Ballet – Sharing a Rich Trans-Atlantic Legacy
Join us for an evening of dance and discovery with The Royal Ballet, Dance Theatre of Harlem and the Black British Ballet Project.
Presented before a live audience in London and in New York City, this special program will highlight the little-known but extensive history of Black dancers in ballet in the UK and US, and will feature performances by The Royal Ballet and Dance Theatre of Harlem. This event will be co-hosted in New York City by Jacob’s Pillow and the New York Library for the Performing Arts.
