Native Earth Performing Arts is proud to present Black Ballerina by Syreeta Hector from May 23-25, 2025 at Aki Studio in Toronto. Based on Syreeta Hector’s Blackness and Indigeneity in relationship to her experiences in classical ballet, Black Ballerina is a powerful exploration of the nuances within one’s identity, and the unconscious ways that we all try to fit in.
