Behind the Red Velvet Curtain: An American Ballerina in Russia

Behind the Red Velvet Curtain: An American Ballerina in Russia by Joy Womack, Elizabeth Shockman
English | February 19, 2025 | ISBN: 1538199378, 9781538199381 | True EPUB | 274 pages | 8.4 MB

In 2012 Joy Womack made history when she became the first American ballerina to sign a contract with the Bolshoi Ballet Theater in Moscow, Russia.

Dancing in Moscow was not the Onion Dome fairy tale she’d hoped for. The Bolshoi and its school were filled with cutthroat competition, acts of violence, and coaches who encouraged obsessive devotion. They sent her on stage with broken bones, helped her forge immigration paperwork, and encouraged her to toe a dangerous political line - all for the privilege of dancing on one of the world's most storied stages.

As Joy’s career took off and she made a name for herself in the Russian ballet world, she had to face a hard choice. Were the growing dangers of a professional lifestyle descending into corruption worth the realization of her life's dream?
