Jonathan Porretta is one of the most beloved dancers at Pacific Northwest Ballet. But his journey to principal dancer wasnât easy: he grew up different: gay, lonely, and teased in a small New Jersey town, following a dream that those around him couldnât understand. Award-winning arts journalist Marcie Sillman chronicles the dancerâs tale in a new, all-ages coffee-table book called Out There: Jonathan Porrettaâs Life in Dance.
The bookâs messageââBe yourself and people will love you for who you areââcomes through clearly in Sillmanâs crisp, engaging prose. Family snapshots and exquisite dance photography by Angela Sterling show key moments in Porrettaâs career thus far.
Out There is an expanded version of the 2,000-word article Sillman published on KUOW.org in January 2016. In addition to Sillmanâs 5,000-word essay, Out There includes a list of Porrettaâs lead roles (plus 10 favorites highlighted with personal commentary by Porretta), a selected bibliography of articles about Porretta, and a timeline.
