Description
Phil Chan's journey to challenge America's favorite holiday ballet and its representation of race is a thought-provoking exploration of cultural sensitivity in the arts.
Chan recounts his conversations with New York City Ballet Artistic Director Peter Martins, which sparked a conversation about how to present The Nutcracker without perpetuating yellowface. He also shares his experience advising Ballet West on a lost Balanchine work from 1925, Le Chant du Rossignol.
This book offers insights into the evolution of an Old World dance form in a New World environment, and provides practical advice for arts organizations navigating issues around race and representation.
