Don’t Laugh
Keeping the Joneses Up, Vol. 1
Langbeschreibung
As a white haired, green-eyed, 'black sheep' growing up in a fire zone, Sacha (then Sally) feels from a young age she doesn't fit in with her family or general environment and struggles, literally, to breathe. But when a doctor recommends ballet as a cure for her ills, though her Russian teacher tells her she is 'not built for ballet', she finds a way to bend her build to ballet and to breathe easier, succeeding against the odds to go on to win national ballet scholarships and become the youngest star of the Sydney City Ballet.
Australian New Zealander Sacha Jones is a former ballerina with a PhD in 'the battle of the sexes' (feminist theory and practice) who now writes tragicomic memoir, creative non-fiction and stand-up comedy that hopes to challenge regressive gender stereotypes while making people of all walks, talks and chromosomes laugh at the many absurdities of modern life.
