Black Ballet History Month!...Balletist Of The Week!...Geoffrey Holder!

 

Yes!...Black Ballet History... 

...is 'So 'The Hottest Ticket In Town!''


We remember, and say the name...








...Geoffrey Holder!


First, this Man, a strong 'Lover-of-Life,' who was 

also very good at dancing and acting and singing, 

was many parts a brilliant Showman! We knew 

this and he always satiated our deep-throated 

entertainment appetites! Each of his big-stage 

performances started out with great airs of 

anticipation, like the audience members couldn't 

believe it, and that they were the luckiest people 

in the world, because they were going to see 

the 'Great One,' live...right now, to give them 

more than their money's worth! 

Some observers still can recount, with 

amazement, what they witnessed first hand!



"You Got People Still Talkin'!"



Geoffrey also happens to have a...'Huge'...mid-upper-lip

called "Look!"









Black Ballet History Month was

 founded by Ralph Winge, D.D.S.

in 2025 to recognize, celebrate, 

and honor, with deep pride, the 

countless Black Men, Women, 

and Organizations who 

tirelessly gave, and are giving, their 

time, talent, and physical treasure to 

exquisitely create, interpret, and put 

on historical and memorable 

Professional Ballet Productions the 

World over and to teach and mentor 

upcoming generations of performers!





The Founder of Black Ballet History Month,

Ralph Winge, D.D.S.,

is also a Classical Ballet enthusiast,

USC Dental School Graduate,

and elucidator of elatus labialis wingeulus.
