Running a company is pretty demanding.

You cannot dance physically certain things. But look at tango dancers or flamenco or Japanese classical theater. You can, if you're smart enough and you collaborate with the right choreographers, you could really dance your age.

I always had a kind of strange relationship with New York City, with total love affair in the beginning then retreat during the kind of conservatives of politics and real estate and business came, and then I am again kind of fighting for the justice to the city, to open the city for the artists.

Dances have a second and third life. You feel they are never ready. They always have a chance for another life.

Nothing is ever too expensive if it furthers the repertoire and artistic standards of a dance company.

People dance at any age.

I am not the first straight dancer or the last.
