I'm just a hoofer with a spare set of tails.

When you're experimenting you have to try so many things before you choose what you want, and you may go days getting nothing but exhaustion.

But I do nothing that I don't like, such as "inventing" up to the arty or "down" to the corny. I happen to relish a certain type of corn. What I think is the really dangerous approach is the "let's be artistic" attitude. I know that artistry just happens.

I had some ballet training but didn't like it. It was like a game to me.

I don't remember anybody ever pointing me out as a dancing prodigy, but I played a not bad second base.

Can't act. Can't sing. Slightly bald. Can dance a little.

When working on my choreography I am not always receptive to outside suggestions or opinions. I believe that if you have something in mind in the way of a creation, such as a new dance, a sequence, or an effect, you are certain to come up with inaccurate criticism and damaging results if you go around asking for opinions.
