Dance Theatre of Harlem auf DVD

The Dance Theatre of Harlem, America's first outstanding classical ballet company of black dancers, started out as a ghetto experiment that quickly reached world-class level. It was created by Arthur Mitchell, a School of American Ballet student who had broken through ballet's colour barrier by becoming the first black dancer to join an internationally renowned company, the New York City Ballet.
