In May and June of 2016 I had the amazing opportunity to work and perform with English National Ballet for their Swan Lake in-the-round production at Royal Albert Hall.
There were more than 30 guest artists hired, and 60 swans in the corps de ballet. Over the course of two weeks we performed for over 50,000 people including Princess Beatrice and the Duke of York.
Performing on a circular stage presented a host of challenges for the dancers, but created a truly immersive experience for the audience. Hearing their response at the end of every performance was a daily reminder of why we all chose this profession.
Taking part in this production has helped shape my career and my growth as an international artist, and dancing at Royal Albert Hall is an experience I will never forget.
