Why do you want to be in this show?
When I found out about the audition I was so excited at the thought of getting an opportunity like this. I remember seeing my first Matthew Bourne production in 2013 (Sleeping Beauty) and I can remember clearly thinking how inspired I was by the choreography and talent. After that day, I started doing my own choreography and watching more and more productions. To have an opportunity to perform with a company that inspired me when I was younger was something I couldn't miss and after taking part in Richard Alston's - Alston Inspire project, last year, it gave me the confidence to apply for the audition.

Tell us a fun fact about yourself:
I have extra bones in my feet! Thanks to the amazing physio, Shirley Hancock, I'm still able to dance.
