  • A New Ballet Company Comes to Wake Forest!
    A New Ballet Company comes to Wake Forest! My name is Ruth Leney-Midkiff and I am the Co-Founder and Artistic Director of the Wake Forest Civic Ballet (WFCB). Twelve years ago, Patty Ogden, Owner and Director of Destiny Dance Institute (DDI), asked me to develop a high caliber ballet program for young dancers at DDI. We now have what is recognized as one of the top ballet programs in the Triangle area. What began as a single weekly class so long ago has blossomed into a fully-developed, Pre-Professional curriculum. We now have five levels and a permanent faculty of six instructors, who come to us with outstanding credentials from schools and companies worldwide. Our most advanced young dancers attend class five times weekly, and have been invited to study at some of our nation’s most prestigious dance schools including: Pacific Northwest Ballet, Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet, Richmond Ballet, Charlotte Ballet, and Carolina Ballet. Some have gone on to dance professionally, and many are enthusiastically aspiring to careers as young dance artists. In 2010, we founded the Destiny Dance Institute Ballet Company (DDIBC), which gave our dancers a vehicle to perform both classical and contemporary repertoire. From Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker and Sleeping Beauty, to Stravinsky’s Firebird and guest artist Bill de Young’s edgy “Slate,” our dancers have leapt and twirled their way into the world of dance. Our success is built upon a commitment to hard work, quality training, and excellence in production. DDIBC has used its resources to foster the arts in our community, not only by hiring instructors and choreographers, but also by engaging local seamstresses, set designers, lighting designers, photographers, actors and more.

  • Nicolle Greenhood Major Paper FINAL.Pdf (4.901Mb)
    DIVERSITY EN POINTE: MINIMIZING DISCRIMINATORY HIRING PRACTICES TO INCREASE BALLET’S CULTURAL RELEVANCE IN AMERICA Nicolle Mitchell Greenhood Major paper submitted to the faculty of Goucher College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Arts Administration 2016 Abstract Title of Thesis: DIVERSITY EN POINTE: MINIMIZING DISCRIMINATORY HIRING PRACTICES TO INCREASE BALLET’S CULTURAL RELEVANCE IN AMERICA Degree Candidate: Nicolle Mitchell Greenhood Degree and Year: Master of Arts in Arts Administration, 2016 Major Paper Directed by: Michael Crowley, M.A. Welsh Center for Graduate and Professional Studies Goucher College Ballet was established as a performing art form in fifteenth century French and Italian courts. Current American ballet stems from the vision of choreographer George Balanchine, who set ballet standards through his educational institution, School of American Ballet, and dance company, New York City Ballet. These organizations are currently the largest-budget performing company and training facility in the United States, and, along with other major US ballet companies, have adopted Balanchine’s preference for ultra thin, light skinned, young, heteronormative dancers. Due to their financial stability and power, these dance companies set the standard for ballet in America, making it difficult for dancers who do not fit these narrow characteristics to succeed and thrive in the field. The ballet field must adapt to an increasingly diverse society while upholding artistic integrity to the art form’s values. Those who live in America make up a heterogeneous community with a blend of worldwide cultures, but ballet has been slow to focus on diversity in company rosters.
