Marcia working for the DA 🥹 I’m glad she found purpose outside of dance

“When your motives are pure, an invisible hand will always come out to help you”

Poor Gayle :( all the stress of being mistress might have led to cancer omg

i love the way the author chunked the story into 3 parts instead of making it one long thing🙂‍↕️

god this book is sooo good

ballet is literally such an insane art form… like yes some of ur toenails will probs fall off when dancing pointe and that’s just to be expected??

Mitchell rejecting the dancers that left for a film is ridiculous. He admitted it himself, he can’t offer the salaries Hollywood could—Harlem’s best offer was 10k? Please

Maybe Mitchell was gay or bi but living in that time his internalized homophobia was more about protecting his company & dancers than it was about himself. Being black was already new & hard in classical dance so to add sexuality into it, it’s just only adapted in recent years now.
