WHDF guest company Ballet D’Hommes challenges traditional gender dynamics in classical ballet by showcasing male dancers on pointe. Led by Artistic Director Damien Diaz, this workshop breaks from the paradigm of binary female/male gender roles in ballet to offer all participants the experience of practicing basic and easy-to-learn steps in a positive and empowering environment that promotes gender inclusivity - no steps need be reserved for a person based on how they identify! Join us for the workshop, and see Ballet D’Hommes perform “Dangerous Moves” choreographed by Chad Michael Hall in the festival performance series! No dance experience is necessary, and all are welcome. For more information, visit www.multiplexdance.org/whdf-community-workshops. Sponsored by the City of West Hollywood's WeHo Arts program.
