I look at the dancers and I get the inspiration for the work from them.
For me it was really important to get the essence out of the music for the story and not, sort of, press the music into the service of the whimsical telling of it.
SDC has a great reputation for putting live music on stage.
Normally our season is seven weeks in the Drama Theatre and four weeks in the Opera Theater.
I actually build my dreams around the dancers I've got in my company.
And dance is wonderful because dance is so immediate.
