BalletMet’s Rachael Parini Opens Up About Living With Bipolar 1 Disorder, and Her Triumphant Return to Dance

by Rachael Parini as told to Linnea Swarting | Oct 11, 2023

Rachael Parini dos a large sissone, her legs split, as her male partner holds her by the waist and lifts her high into the air onstage. Two other couples do the same step in the background. The women wear light-colored shorts, bralette tops, and pointe shoes, and the men are shirtless with light-colored shorts. They dance in front of a taupe backdrop and a few orange trees.
