(86) Misty Copeland’s Clap Back & Ballet’s Chance for a Turning Point

It's just Rebecca and Michael this week as they sit down to discuss some of the stories that have been making news recently.  We talk about Misty Copeland's epic and graceful response to a Twitter troll last week (7:55) and discuss Avichai Scher's article for the Huffington Post, “The Me Too Moment Is Ballet's Chance for a Turning Point” (16:15).  We will be going to San Francisco April 20-25th to partner with San Francisco Ballet to bring you coverage from their massive “Unbound” Festival, which will feature 12 new works by 12 choreographers in 17 days (34:48).  Subscribe now to Conversations on Dance in iTunes or wherever you get your podcasts to automatically be notified when new episodes are available.
