Join our Friends at Pointe for a Q&A With ABT’s Gabe Stone Shayer on January 21
January 11, 2021

Gabe Stone Shayer, American Ballet Theatre’s newest soloist, has long been a standout onstage. But the 27-year-old dancer—the first African-American male to graduate from Russia’s Bolshoi Ballet Academy—is also branching out into choreography and spearheading a flurry of creative projects. Shayer has big ideas for ballet’s future. “I want to be the person who facilitates the idea of possibility in this historically exclusive world,” he told us in our December/January digital cover story. “And I want to present the possibility of success through my own story.”

Now you have a chance to ask Shayer about his training and career, his advice on navigating a path in ballet, his recent work with Alicia Keys, his thoughts on diversity in dance and more.
