On this episode I talked with English about her first introduction to theatre, how studying ballet at City Ballet in North Carolina helped her and still helps her when it comes to performing and singing, getting nominated for and participating in the Jimmy Awards in High School, the most valuable advice she received from guest mentors at The Jimmy Awards, getting the opportunity to workshop the Pasek/Paul/Levenson Project, now known as Dear Evan Hansen, booking the tour of If/Then and learning the ins and outs of tour life in 2015-2016, why If/Then is still a show that holds relevance, whether she knew going into audition for Mean Girls that she would be standing by for three lead roles: Cady, Janis, and Regina, her process for learning all three roles and how she made the roles her own, when she found out she'd be leading the tour as Cady and how her portrayal of Cady has changed over the years, her dream roles, and much more! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/backstagewithbeccab/support
每日英語跟讀 Ep.K360: Ballet is hard enough. What Happens When You Lose a Year? In ballet when you lose a year, you lose a lot. It takes years of sacrifice and training to become a professional, and the performing life of a dancer is short. 在芭蕾的世界,你失去一年,你的損失可就大了。經過多年犧牲訓練才能成為一個專業舞者,表演生涯卻頗為短暫。 For elite ballet dancers, a solid career lasts around 15 years — and that comes after roughly a decade of schooling. Could this pause alter the evolution of dance generations? 對菁英芭蕾舞者而言,穩定的職涯約可維持15年,唯須先經10年左右正式學習。這波疫情中斷會改變舞蹈界的世代演進嗎? “They're losing a year to a year and a half of their career that they're not going to get back,” Jonathan Stafford, New York City Ballet's artistic director, said. “It's not like they can make it up on the back end. Everyone eventually is going to age out.” 「他們損失一年至一年半的職涯,而且無法追回。」紐約市芭蕾舞團藝術總監強納森‧史代佛說。「這並非他們之後能補上的事,到頭來每個人都會不再適齡。」 Ballet dancers need mental toughness to prevail in ordinary times. But this collective timeout is unlike anything they have experienced in their careers. 芭蕾舞者平時就需有堅強的心智方能出類拔萃,碰上這波疫情被迫集體性暫停卻跟他們原來職涯中任何經歷都大不相同。 “It has to be brutal — physically and psychologically,” Mikhail Baryshnikov said in an email. He recalled having “tough tests” — times in his career when injuries had forced him to take off a few months. “But it's hard to imagine what it's been like for dancers sidelined by the pandemic.” 「這對身心肯定都是嚴苛考驗。」米夏‧巴瑞辛尼可夫在電郵中表示。他回憶職涯中多次因受傷被迫休息數月,遭遇「嚴酷試煉」。「但是,很難想像舞者因為疫情無法表演是何種光景。」 How does a dancer stay motivated and challenged? Some won't have jobs to return to, and those who do don't know when performances will return to normal. And the clock keeps ticking. 舞者如何維持積極向上和接受挑戰的心志?一些人將回不去原來的工作崗位,回得去的也不知演出何時能恢復正常。而時光繼續流逝。 “I can't imagine any point in my career being dealt this card,” said Wendy Whelan, the associate artistic director of City Ballet where she was a leading dancer for 30 years. “You are taking up steps — up, up, up, up, up — and you don't want to get knocked off of any one of those steps at any point. Then, when you get there, you want to hang on to it as long as you can.” 「我無法想像職涯中任何時間點碰上這種情況。」曾任紐約市芭蕾舞團首席舞者30年的該團副藝術總監溫蒂‧韋倫說。「你順著台階往上爬,一階階往上攻頂,不想在任何時刻從任何一階上被打下來。然後當你登頂後,會想在那兒待得愈久愈好。」 Stafford said he wasn't worried about dancers regaining their athleticism and movement quality; he even thinks their technique will be better, a result of working more slowly and focusing on the basics. But it will take time — months of classes and then rehearsals — to get them back to where they were last March. 史代佛說,他並不擔心舞者無法回復運動能力與動作品質,甚至認為他們的技巧會更好,因為能以較慢步調練習及專注於基礎。但需要相當時間,數月課程再加上排練,才能讓他們重回去年三月的狀態。 Dancers are practical; this year has shown that they are also incredibly resilient. While the shutdown has meant time away from performing, it has also given dancers an opportunity to experience life beyond their art, and many have relished the pause. They are taking college classes or teaching or having surgery they have put off, knowing there is time to recover. There are lots of babies on the way. 舞者是務實的,這一年顯示他們也極具韌性。封城雖意味無法表演,卻也給舞者體驗舞蹈以外人生的機會,許多人很享受這段空檔。他們去大學上課、教課或接受擱置的手術,因為知道有時間可以休養。另外也會有許多新生命即將誕生。 “I am convinced that they're going to come back more well rounded, more interesting, softer in a way,” Whelan said, adding: “This time has been so healthy. Unfortunate, yet healthy.” 「我確信他們再回來時會更全面而完整,更有趣,或者也可以說更柔軟。」韋倫說,她又說:「這段時光十分健康,雖不幸」Source article: https://udn.com/news/story/6904/5348793
On this week's Hear the Dance episode of City Ballet the Podcast, join host Silas Farley for an in-depth conversation with former NYCB Principal Dancer Helgi Tomasson.

In between, Tomasson auditioned for Jerome Robbins' Ballet USA, gaining a significant fan in the choreographer; discovered the States while on tour with the Joffrey Ballet; danced for six years with the Harkness Ballet; and won the silver medal following an adventure-filled performance at the First International Ballet Competition in Moscow in 1969.

What's it like for a professional ballerina to try a sedentary art form like writing? Georgina Pazcoguin, soloist with the New York City Ballet, talks with Eve and Julie about the creation of her debut memoir, Swan Dive: The Making of a Rogue Ballerina, in which she shakes the “stereotype of the uptight ballerina to bits.” Georgina takes Eve and Julie behind the curtain of the ballet and describes her experiences as NYCB's first Asian American soloist. She also discusses the abuse inflicted by Peter Martins during his time as Artistic Director of NYCB, and its lingering effects on the dancers. Georgina Pazcoguin joined the New York City Ballet in 2002 and became a soloist in 2013, the first Asian American ever to be promoted to the company's upper tier. In addition to her many appearances at City Ballet, including a celebrated portrayal of Anita in Jerome Robbins' West Side Story Suite, her credits include the award-winning film NY Export: Opus Jazz, Ivy in the Broadway revival of On the Town, and Victoria in the Broadway revival of CATS. Georgina is a passionate activist for The Orphaned Starfish Foundation, and she's a co-founder of the globally recognized diversity initiative, Final Bow for Yellowface.

City Ballet the Podcast is back for a special edition of See the Music. Music Director Andrew Litton hosts a tour through the musical delights of the Tschaikovsky score to George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker®, from the ballet’s ignominious beginnings to the composer’s felicitous discovery of the celesta—the renowned accompaniment to the Sugarplum Fairy’s introduction in Act II. Litton is joined by Concertmaster Kurt Nikkanen, who performs the lilting violin solo Balanchine borrowed from the rarely-played Entr’acte of Tschaikovsky’s The Sleeping Beauty for inclusion in his version of this classic holiday tale. (23:44) Music: The Nutcracker (1892) by Pyotr Ilyich Tschaikovsky
Trained with an expertise and forte' in the George Balanchine form of ballet, she graduated from the prestigious Indian University Jacobs School of Music. Professional Ballet Dancer, Anna Barnes, sits with America's Podcaster, Kurt Caceres, to talk about one of the most grueling and impossible careers to find success on the planet. Only 10% of all children who start this form of dance, ever make it to the top of the profession and get paid to do what they love most. It's one of the few art forms that is also considered a "sport", because of its intense daily and rigorous training, 7 days a week, for life. The physical toll it takes on the body and mentally on the psyche is rivaled by few careers. Anna takes us through the day to day career of a ballet dancer from the day she started at 2 1/2 years old now to her life as a professional dancer with the City Ballet of San Diego. It is a story of perseverance, dedication, pain and celebration! XX Please Follow and Subscribe to the Podcast.

The Wanderers (G.P. Putnam's Sons) Brilliantly imagined and wholly original, The Wanderers follows three astronauts as they audition for the first-ever mission to Mars, an experience that will push the boundary between real and unreal, test their relationships, and leave each of them—and their families—changed forever. Inspired by real-life experiments designed to test the psychological and physiological demands of a human mission to Mars, Meg Howrey’s intrinsically-researched, stunning new novel is described best by J. Ryan Stradal, New York Times-bestselling author of Kitchens of the Great Midwest, “Ambitious and deeply empathetic, Howrey’s exquisite novel demonstrates that the final frontier may not be space after all.” Readers of Station Eleven, Karen Joy Fowler, and Ruth Ozeki will love this imaginative, witty work of literary fiction and its moving tribute to human relationships that define and support incredible scientific achievement. In four years, Prime Space will put the first humans on Mars in a wildly ambitious and history-making mission called MarsNOW. Helen Kane, Yoshihiro Tanaka, and Sergei Kuznetsov must prove they’re the crew for the job by spending seventeen months in the most realistic simulation of a space mission ever created. Helen, recently retired from NASA after a decades-long career and three extended missions to space, has not trained for irrelevance. It’s nobody’s fault that the best of her exists only in space, but her daughter can’t help placing blame. This mission is Helen’s last chance to return to the only place she’s ever felt at home. For Yoshi, the mission is an opportunity to prove himself to the high-powered wife he has loved absolutely, if not quite correctly. Sergei is willing to spend seventeen months in a tin can if it means traveling to Mars, ultimately proving his own immense strength and stamina as an example of solidity for his sons. As the days turn into months aboard the simulated spacecraft, the line between what is real and unreal fractures irreparably, and the astronauts learn that the complications of inner space are no less fraught than those of outer space. As their family members navigate planet Earth thousands of miles away, facing their own greatest fears and achieving incredible personal triumphs, the astronauts grapple with intense loneliness and increasingly prevalent psychological stress. They start to ask themselves the eternal questions that we have all faced: What is life? Who are we? What is the purpose of all this cosmic mayhem? Probing just how well we can ever know ourselves, or hope to know somebody else, The Wanderers gets at the heart of what it means to be human—even when we’re a million miles from home. Sweeping in both its delicious, witty writing and phenomenal, factual exploration of outer space, Howrey’s meticulously researched yet tender novel puts a uniquely human face on the science behind space exploration, bringing sparks of life to each astronaut and reminding us that in an age of space exploration, the thing we search most desperately for is to find ourselves. Praise for The Wanderers "Three astronauts and those who know them best explore the limits of truth and love in Howrey's genre-bending novel...The voices are distinct, each member reviewing and acting on his or her own emotional telemetry with equal parts brilliance and blunder, and the stakes are high, with any heartbeat capable of tipping the scales against the crew's survival...With these believably fragile and idealistic characters at the helm, Howrey's insightful novel will take readers toa place where they too can 'lift their heads and wonder.'"–Publishers Weekly, Starred Review "Engrossing…Although the contours of a space drama may seem familiar to a 21st-century readership, Howrey, through the poetry of her writing and the richness of her characters, makes it all seem new. A lyrical and subtle space opera"-–Kirkus, Starred Review “The Wanderers…confronts ageless questions of why humans explore, what they are looking for, and what happens when they find it. Evoking the authenticity of Neal Stephenson’s Seveneves (2015) with the literary sensitivity of Ann Patchett, Howrey has made the mission-to- Mars motif an exquisite exploration of human space, inner and outer.”-–Booklist “The Wanderers is phenomenal. A transcendent, cross-cultural and cross-planetary journey into the mysteries of space and self, the novel explores the dangers and necessities of venturing away from the familiar and finding home in the unknown. Howrey's expansive vision left me awestruck.” —Ruth Ozeki, New York Times bestselling and Man Booker shortlisted author of A Tale for the Time Being “An expansive tale of the costs of human ambition, The Wanderers is unquestionably the work of a brilliant writer at the height of her powers. Meticulously researched and magnificently rendered, Howrey’s dazzling novel on humankind’s most ambitious project is, in itself, a work of wondrous skill and ambition, a book about space that’s truly about people, but also about the lonely wonder of true trailblazers, the disparate cast behind a great life, and the compromises that build success. Fiercely inventive and deeply empathetic, Howrey’s exquisite novel demonstrates that the final frontier may not be space after all.”—J. Ryan Stradal, New York Times bestselling author of Kitchens of the Great Midwest “The Wanderers is a stealthily brilliant novel. A distinct, shimmering vision of who we are and where we think we want to go. Meg Howrey’s three astronauts and their families seem to embody the whole human race at the signal moment of a growth spurt. They exist, as we do now, at the edge of science fiction, their story propelled by a seriousness and intelligence wrapped in a comic and tender humanity. Meg Howrey delivers this vision in a prose that feels new, sui generis, its own necessary vehicle, with a kind of sleek precision that is at once simple, gorgeous, and profoundly moving.”—Peter Nichols, national bestselling author of The Rocks and A Voyage for Madmen “Elegant, thoughtful, gorgeously written. A meditation on solitude, connection, aspiration, imagination and reality, which builds effortlessly to moments of immense power and honesty. There are passages near the end of this book that I will never forget.”—Charles Yu, author of How to Live Safely in a Science Fiction Universe and Sorry Please Thank You “The Wanderers is a wonderful exploration of space, trust, and what it means to be a conscious creature, finely-tuned and funny from the first page to the last. I loved getting lost in Meg Howrey's off-kilter world of astronauts and their simulated fantasies. She's a writer with an amazing eye for freedom and confinement and the thin line that sometimes lies between the two.”—Jonathan Lee, author of High Dive Meg Howrey is a former dancer who performed with The Joffrey, Eglevsky Ballet, and City Ballet of Los Angeles. She toured nationally with the Broadway production of Contact, for which she won the Ovation Award in 2001 for best featured actress in a musical.

Her nonfiction has appeared in Vogue and The Los Angeles Review of Books. She currently lives in Los Angeles. Charles Yu is the author of three books. His fiction and non-fiction have appeared in various publications including The New Yorker, The New York Times, and Wired. He is currently writing for an upcoming HBO show created by Alan Ball, and is also at work on his next novel, The Book of Wishing.
