Screening: A Ballerina’s Tale – Summerstage

Summerstage will be showing a screening of “A Ballerina’s Tale” about Misty Copeland, the first African-American woman to be named principal dancer of the legendary American Ballet Theater.  This film will show her story of how she overcame a tumultuous upbringing and near career-ending injuries to become one of the most revered dancers of her generation in A Ballerina’s Tale. More than just a ballet success story, Copeland’s journey is a hugely inspirational, universal tale of perseverance.
