A memoir-in-essays from the American Ballet Theatre principal dancer-slash-drag queen-slash-pop star who's redefining what it means to be a man in ballet.
What The Reviewers Say
Whiteside has written a thoughtful collection of essays that gives readers insight into what it means to be the kind of creative who can’t be pigeonholed into one genre.
This is a funny, frank, and sometimes raunchy 'almost memoir' in which no topic is off-limits, and all are presented with wit and style.
A debut that’s deeply resonant—but no less raunchy for it.
Readers seeking details about his artistic training or technique are out of luck.
