The best physique I ever had was when I was ballet dancing.

I was a breakdancer as a kid. I was on one of the top break dancing teams in Australia.

It's dancing! It's magical, actually. A kind of slowish magic. Like writing with your feet.

Another fascinating aspect, ... is that it can be a completely different ballet depending on who's dancing it. It's so simple but it's so revealing, and it can tell such completely different stories.

That's certainly what I grew up with-ballet and musical comedy. My mother taught ballroom dancing and, I think, would have liked to have been a dancer herself. So she pushed me a lot when I was very young, but I loved it. All I really wanted to be was a dancer. There's a discipline in dance that you don't get anywhere else.

(The Russian National Ballet) brings beautiful dancing, lavish costumes and scenery. It will be a magical performance.
