Robert Gottlieb
American Writer
The best seat in the house often depends on the ballet. For instance, much of the first act of 'The Nutcracker' is domestic and small scale, so it's great to sit up close. But the second act features elaborate scenery and choreography, which are better to observe from a distance.
Quote examples
Keri Russell
American Actress
Dance has helped me with everything. It was a great foundation for discipline, hard work and, unfortunately, the ever-elusive idea of perfection. It lends itself easily to fight choreography, because that's what it really is. Choreography. And knowing how to move with someone.
Quote examples
Barrett Wilbert Weed
American Actress
The goal, when you're playing a character that's super beloved from a movie, is to honor what the actor before you has done and then really just expand, which is what you get to do in a musical because you have songs, choreography, and everything is happening in real time.
Quote examples
Alyssa Edwards
American Entertainer
A good dancer is not necessarily defined by great technique, skill, or ability to pick up choreography but by confidence. When you feel the music, it penetrates to your soul. Everybody's a dancer. The greatest dancer is someone who is willing to dance, not afraid.
Quote examples
J-Hope
South Korean Musician
If we think something is not good, we'll openly say it. If there's choreography, for example, and it feels like it's going to be too taxing on our physical resources - as I said, we're not getting any younger - we'll say so, and then we'll make those changes.
Quote examples
Katherine Dunham
American Dancer
Without my husband's costumes I wouldn't have known how to accomplish what I saw in my own mind's eyes for choreography. And then seeing our choreography and knowing the background of it I am sure helped my husband a great deal with what he designed for us.
Quote examples
Emily Meade
American Actress
Twelve' was a total indie drama character piece. It wasn't that it was more about the performance, but it was just a very different thing where, with horror, there's this whole added element of the visual and the technical and the choreography.
Quote examples
Linda Lavin
American Actress
Once you have the pattern of life of this person, the choreography, so to speak, you have the canvas that you present eight times a week, not without feeling underneath it, but it's not as churning as the discovery process was.

I said, 'I'll give myself two years. If I can't support myself as an actress within two years, then I'll go back to choreography.
