Siphesihle November in Action: The First Soloist at the National Ballet of Canada Dances for NUVO
• • • Dance
Overview
The National Ballet, throughout its 70-year history, has mostly conformed to a European ideal. Dancers of colour are a minority; 18 out of 73 dancers, approximately one quarter, are non-Caucasian. Of those, eight are Black or multiracial. Siphesihle November, first soloist at the National Ballet of Canada, soars past ballet’s colour barrier to land at the pinnacle of his profession.
