[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess they have to balance the reputation of the company / school ([b]which may lead them to treat casting as a 100% meritocracy[/b]) and the development/retainment of as many dancers as possible. [/quote] If you know anything about the ballet world, you know that it historically has been rife with racism. Ballet is most definitely not a meritocracy. It's getting better, but you're in the market for bridges if you think that TWB or any other professional ballet company for that matter is completely immune from racism.[/quote] PP, that is a good point. Tons of bias (conscious or unconscious), preference for certain looks, etc. Hopefully things do get better in the future. [/quote]
