Eventually, he revolutionized the world of classical ballet. His name: Arthur Mitchell. From the streets of Harlem to the White House, explore his incredible journey. The first black man to become a ballet star December 1, 1957. New Yorkers hustle through the icy streets of Manhattan. A crowd gathers around a renowned cultural center.

Tonight, two brilliant artists have joined forces to create a ballet with a scent of revolution: George Balanchine, choreographer, and Igor Stravinsky, composer. Backstage, Balanchine places his hand on the shoulder of his star dancer. Despite the pressure, the young artist remains at ease. He smiles at Balanchine and nods.
