Black Ballerina is a powerful exploration of the nuances within one’s identity, and the unconscious ways that we all try to fit in.

Presented in partnership with Springboard Performance.

Based on Syreeta Hector’s relationship to race, and her experiences in classical ballet, Black Ballerina is a powerful exploration of the nuances within one’s identity, and the unconscious ways that we all try to fit in. The 2019 performance of an earlier version of Black Ballerina was nominated for a Dora Mavor Moore Award. Performed by Hector, Black Ballerina brings an unbridled energy to the stage.
