Dance Diary: Prima Ballerina Tiler Peck

Tiler Peck wears many shoes: principal dancer at New York City Ballet, choreographer, actress, writer and curator. It’s been a particularly busy time for the ballet dancer, who is not only helming the show “Turn It Out with Tiler Peck & Friends” at New York City Center but also preparing for the publication of her book “XO Ballerina Big Sis” and the upcoming premiere of her documentary “Tiler Peck: Suspending Time” on PBS’s “Great Performances” — all the while performing at Lincoln Center and beyond.

Peck steps inside the rehearsal studio at New York City Center to talk about curating "Turn It Out," taking her spot at the front of the room, sharing her love of ballet and guiding a next generation of dancers with empathy and care. Joining her are collaborators and dancers Michelle Dorrance, Roman Mejia, Chun Wai Chan and Mira Nadon.
