Black Ballet History Month!...Balletist Of The Week!...Audrey Malek!


Yes!...Black Ballet History...

...is 'So Nebulous!'



We now remember, and say the name...




...Audrey Malek!



Audrey is not playing Games! She 

started going 'full bore' at Washington 

School of Ballet on a full scholarship 

and attended summer intensives at the 

likes of...you know...DT Harlem and 

ABT, among others. In 2022, she 

became a corps de ballet member 

at Pacific NW Ballet after being 

featured in The New York Times 

and in Pointe Magazine! She's been 

chalking up leading  and original 

roles in all the big showings like 

The Nutcracker, Giselle, and, of course, 

Catching Feelings*!





"I'd Move Out Of Her Way If I Were You!"









Black Ballet History Month was

 founded by Ralph C. 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 C. Winge, D.D.S.,

is also a Classical Ballet enthusiast,

USC Dental School Graduate,

and elucidator of elatus labialis wingeulus.
