Center Center
Author: James Whiteside
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0593297849
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
“James Whiteside is an electrifying performer, an incredible athlete, and an artist, through and through. To know James is to love him; with Center Center, you are about to fall in love.” —Jennifer Garner “A frank examination and celebration of queerness.” —Good Morning America A daring, joyous, and inspiring 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 There's a mark on every stage around the world that signifies the center of its depth and width, called "center center." James Whiteside has dreamed of standing on that very mark as a principal dancer with the prestigious American Ballet Theatre ever since he was a twelve-year-old blown away by watching the company's spring gala. The GLAMOUR. The VIRTUOSITY. The RIPPED MEN IN TIGHTS! In this absurd and absurdist collection of essays, Whiteside tells us the story of how he got to be a primo ballerino—stopping along the way to muse about the tragically fated childhood pets who taught him how to feel, reminisce on ill-advised partying at summer dance camps, and imagine fantastical run-ins with Jesus on Grindr. Also in these pages are tales of the two alter egos he created to subvert the strict classical rigor of ballet: JbDubs, an out-and-proud pop musician, and Ühu Betch, an over-the-top drag queen named after Yoohoo chocolate milk. Center Center is an exuberant behind-the-scenes tour of Whiteside’s triple life, both on- and offstage—a raunchy, curious, and unapologetic celebration of queerness, self-expression, friendship, sex, creativity, and pushing boundaries that will entertain you, shock you*, inspire you, embolden you . . . and maybe even make you cry. *THIS IS NOT A BOOK FOR CHILDREN.

Rhyming Lines
Author: Jack D. Harrison
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1546283781
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 95
Book Description
This is a book almost completely composed of Poetry, but some are adapted from songs Jack wrote. They all constitute a snap shot perhaps of some of the experiences, influences and the inspiration for writing. They also indicate an illustration of the Authors mindset and motivations. Being Male, many of the poems were written or inspired by things related to boys; and again, from a boys perspective - but not exclusively so. The Author was in fact a boy himself [once]; and in-spite of rumors of having pet dinosaurs. Jack is only 20 (x 3).
