Ballet demands absolute sacrifice. Dancers push the limits of the human mind and body in the relentless pursuit of perfection.
For journalist Nicky Anderson, a childhood love for ballet has become a lifelong fascination, a fascination that has always drawn her back to one place: the New York City Ballet.
Home to some of the greatest works of the modern age, its legacy was shaped by the genius of its founder, the so-called father of American ballet, George Balanchine.
But behind the beauty lies a more complicated truth. Across its 76-year history, the New York City Ballet has faced allegations of power misuse, a major lawsuit, and an investigation into sexual harassment and physical and verbal abuse by a former Ballet Master-in-Chief.
Yet, the real story isn’t in the headlines. It’s in the voices of those who were there, the dancers who lived it.
You see, this isn’t just a story about ballet. It’s about devotion, ambition, and the cost of surrendering yourself entirely to something.
It’s about the people who graced that famous stage - and what became of them.
Dancing with Shadows launches Tuesday 18th February. Subscribe now for new episodes every Tuesday.
From Stak, this is Season Three of the award-winning Legacy. Extraordinary sporting stories that really matter.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
