In the world of classical ballet there are only a handful of story ballets, so getting a new one is cause for excitement.
I totally relate to Tom Cruise. He's not crazy, it's just the litany of the mid-life crisis.
Specifically, we talked about making the character of the prince not so charming, at least in the beginning, and I'm playing around with the preconceptions attached to a character. That's really what intrigued me as well because I thought it would be fun to do it.
