Call Your Friends! Part VI
from Let's Get Dressed
In this special series, I’ve been calling some of my dear friends to see how they’re doing in the midst of the Coronavirus pandemic. In an effort to provide some sense of comfort and normalcy, these conversations are here to provide you with good companionship while we’re all stuck at home, and to also let you know that we're here with you through it. This week features my friend Connor Holloway, a member of the corps de ballet of the American Ballet Theater. Connor and I met when we were young dancers at an ABT summer intensive in Detroit when we were in our early teens. While I quit by 17, Connor went the full nine yards, and has now performed in some of the company’s best shows like The Nutcracker, Whipped Cream, and all the company’s full length ballets. He also happens to run the company’s Instagram account. Connor and I discuss what it's like to be a performer in a time of solitude, how the arts are dramatically adapting, some sacrifices the whole team at ABT have taken, and how he’s using his role on the social media team to lift the curtain on the ballet world and provide support and love to the all the behind-the-scenes talent that helps bring ABT to life. ABT presents Together Tonight on Tuesday, May 12 at 7:00 EDT. Sending virtual love from my couch to yours!
