Dancing Through Life - Commentary

"Dancing Through Life," I'd say, is a blur, but a sort of thrilling blur. I love the choreography, and there was a great amount of pressure. There were moments where I looked at Ari, actually, and she was amazing because she could just see what was going on internally when you’re dancing in front of a hundred incredible dancers, and there's the turbine wheel going behind you where people are doing parkour and flipping up, and you're the main focus in that room, and, you know, I’m naturally someone who lovеs being a part of something, but, like, maybе just on the side, so it was, you know, it's it's a great deal amount of energy that's required, and it was just so exciting to have something really specific to work towards, and also it's just like it made such a difference going from dancing on your own in a big rehearsal room to then slowly having more and more people come in.

Jonathan Bailey is such a brilliant, brilliant, brilliant actor, but the physicality and the singing and the choreography and the books and him using his feet to open and close the books, and all of it was so demanding of him and he just did it like it was nothing. Just like it was so effortless for him, and watching him do that over and over and over again was one of the highlights of my life. It made me so emotional. I think I cried more in the library than probably, I don't even know.
