Talent Will Only Take You So Far,

There's Nothing Like The Force And Challenge Of A New Ballet To Galvanize Everyone Involved In Bringing It To Life.

You're Terrified That Nothing Will Ever Give You The Fulfillment That Dancing Has Given You.

In The World Of Classical Ballet There Are Only A Handful Of Story Ballets, So Getting A New One Is Cause For Excitement.

It's A Time To Reflect And Appreciate All The Contributions That Others Have Made To My Career And My Life. My Vision Is Nothing That Hasn't Been Gleaned Or Understood From Watching And Working With So Many People I Admire Before Me.
