"I was in the middle of a UK tour when venues had to close due to lockdown – and the tour was called Healing The Nation – so that title worked out well. It will turn out to be the longest tour ever, taking three years to complete, and as the tour has gone on, there’s been less and less healing and more and more of the opposite. Admittedly, I could have changed the title but it still seems strangely appropriate - and some of the gigs have been rescheduled, so it would prove confusing to existing ticket-holders if the ticket said Healing The Nation but the show was now called My Life in Ballet.
We have serially re-written the show as a consequence, but, you'll be glad to hear, that this latest version of the show is by far my favourite."
