This kinda has what ur looking for. I remember that the queer character in this does dance. But I read this a long time ago so I'm not 100% sure if it focuses on ballet or if it's stage drama. Anyways that character struggles with gender identity.

This one focuses on ballet mostly. It isn't really focused on queer themes but the main character dresses up as a girl bc he wants to dance with a guy. And they give off gay vibes ykwim but not really canon. They end up being w each other forever in the end tho
"Salad days" and "indulged in your light" also focus on ballet but they're both BLs and are manhuas not manga
thank you! the comments look promising so i think this may be exactly what im looking for!
oh that seems great! thank you
Does anyone know any manga that focus on queer themes (specifically gender-queerness or sapphics) and ballet? I’ve got a friend who loves ballet and wants to get into manga but she doesn’t have an account here so I’m asking on her behalf - anything you think may be in this ballpark would be greatly appreciated!
