Alexander Campbell on Danny Baker radio show this morning


Recommended Posts

It was quite a long interview.  If you know anything about Alex already, then no surprises, but it covered

- his interest in cricket 

- choosing between ballet and cricket

- coming to England at a young age and how he coped

- being the only male in his dancing classes in Australia

- the physicality needed to be a male dancer

- the most difficult lifts / dancing challenges.  He named the lift in La Fille (he didn't mention the name of the ballet, but I am sure this is the one he described)

- 32 fouettes in Swan Lake - what the ballerina has to do

- do men dance on points

- his upcoming performances

- the fact that being a Principal at the Royal Ballet is the top of tree career wise.
