    Somehow, I suspect the Russian dance conservatories will continue to teach ballet.

    Beauty and dancing are constructs of the white male patriarchy and will be redistributed to the New Dark Ages.
    Demoralization, ugly Soviet bloc architecture, a fake fraudulent gaslit Potemkin open air mental asylum so that everyone can be equal in egalitarian misery.
    Welcome to Costco, I love you.

    The prescience of those classic Disney artists! A herd of Stacey Abrams in sheer tutus;farcical then,reality today.

      A few weeks back GVL posted a lovely tribute to the Stacey Abrams crowd with a vid of 15 or so dusky hippos showing their ‘stuff’ as they conga lined around the edge of a swimming pool. It wasn’t ballet unless you think it was but it was about as close as any of them could ever get.

      The vid had at least one redeeming quality; it did not show their feets.

        Jack, it was mating season for the great Elephant Walrus. What you witnessed was the great and famous Elephant Walrus love ritual. Poetry in motion!

        The twerking Swahoons was a psy-op by the WHO, WEF, Gates et al.
        It was designed specifically to *ahem* dis-incentivise mating in any hominid male with an aesthetic sense more developed than that of a farm animal. Some, however, do find it enticing.

    It is the Brit Northern School of *Contemporary* Dance. Contemporary dance, as we all know, is full of the most egregious pretensions and drivelling rubbish. So, nothing to see here. Just let the Bedlamites get on with it.

    Guess no one told Maria Tallchief.

    Harrison Bergeron was supposed to be humorous sci-fi, not an ominous textbook… “[The ballerina] had to apologize at once for her voice, which was a very unfair voice for a woman to use.” -Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., “Harrison Bergeron”

    Two videos: one about a racing car driver who decided to transition and take an examination to enter the Royal Academy of Dance:

    Xe’s white, though, so maybe doesn’t tick all the diversity boxes.

    Second video: Rudolf Nureyev partners Miss Piggy in “Swine Lake”:

    Classical ballet goes interspecies!
