dirac Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Chloé Lopes Gomes writes on racism in ballet for CNN. Quote I have suffered depression and humiliation -- and I am far from the only dancer who has experienced derogatory comments and verbal abuse during my career. Such behavior is institutionalized within ballet, from the time that we are children and begin our training. We don't talk about it because we are taught not to. Link to comment
dirac Posted February 28, 2021 Author Share Posted February 28, 2021 Milwaukee Ballet plans a return to live performance. Quote Pink has changed up not only safety protocols but even production elements and choices themselves, all to accommodate this gradual return to live performances. “The return will be a slow and methodical one,” Pink admitted. “We know that we have to take baby steps. We are now producing performances that are just one hour in length. There will be no intermission, so our audiences won't have to leave the space, go to the washroom. Come back. We're minimizing points of contact.” Link to comment
