Description

In a time where our collective societies are calling for social change, ballet companies and live arts organizations help carry that echo of change. After all, art in itself paints a picture of the times we are in that can be held up to society as if to say "look at what is happening". Join me today as I sit down and talk with Jonathan Batista, a principal dancer with Oklahoma City Ballet. Tune in as we discuss the interesting crossroads we as dancers find ourselves at, and how we can be proponents for good in our day to day lives. Find out how Jonathan envisions ballet becoming more equitable, accessible, and inclusive. The work is on all of us. 

Don't forget to check out Jonathan's youtube channel, which we discuss in the episode. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCL_9mlDwKmA_ihg7YL_rQEw
