Native Film: ‘Maria Tallchief’
Duwamish Longhouse and Cultural Center
4705 W. Marginal Way SW

The ballet world that was dominated by the Russians, French, and English changed dramatically in 1948 when Maria Tallchief took center stage to the most thunderous ovation ever heard in the history of New York City theater and dance. Come watch this beautiful documentary on the life of Maria Tallchief, America’s first prima ballerina. Journey with her as she leaps from her home in the Osage Indian Territory in Oklahoma to the center stages of the world.
