Artists in Diaspora: The US’ only Turkish Ballerina Buse Babadag The Dance Lens Hosted by Cynthia Dragoni

    • Arts

It's the 100th anniversary of the Turkish Republic! In this interview with the US's only Turkish ballerina we'll hear how Ballet San Antonio soloist Buse Babadag went from Istanbul to Texas, her challenges and opinions and a little bit about her coffee company Buse and Rosé.
This is a part of our artists in diaspora series where we’ll hear about the life and work of an artist living outside their homeland, some have left for artistic reasons, some for political and others it was simply where the wind blew them. We’ll also learn about the dance scene in their native country and the historical and political context in which it developed.
The episode previous to this one has historical background on the development of ballet in Turkey.
