Today I have the immense privilege of speaking with Riley Lapham. Riley started dancing early in her home town of Wollongong, and by age 14, she had joined the Australian Ballet School. But from here, Riley's journey takes twists and turns. In her graduation year, Riley missed her final performance due to injury. But in a Center Stage-like moment, the then artistic director David McAllister offered her a contract with the company.In this brave and vulnerable conversation, Riley and I talk about what it's like to join a company while injured, and what it was like to deal with the worldwide shutdown that occurred in 2020 as a junior member of the company. Riley also speaks about a topic she's not yet discussed publicly—her journey with long Covid—what it was like to contract Covid just as she was nominated for Telstra Ballet Dancer of the Year, and then the unexpected journey of not getting better. We talk about the grief and the devastation that followed the acceptance of a slow recovery, her decision to move to France, and the journey back to the stage with the Australian Ballet.Riley continues to train and work with the Australian Ballet's rehabilitation team, while gaining her strength to make a return to the stage. To continue to follow all of Riley's wonderful adventures, you can find her on Instagram at @rileylapham.

The novelization of Vengeance on Varos was published two years behind schedule, meaning that book number 106, which was skipped in the Target Doctor Who novelization release order in 1986, is belatedly plugged in -- immediately after the previous two novelizations were both assigned number 127. Got that? This week's Doctor Who Literature guest is David Barsky. David and Jason have lots of TV and international travel to discuss. And, occasionally, Vengeance on Varos, a controversial story and a novelization tending towards the... verbose. Sound clips in this episode include: --The 1969 Encyclopedia Britannica short film adaptation of Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery"; --A Season 3 "Simpsons" riff also on "The Lottery"; --"Family Guy", like David Barsky, did not care for The Godfather; --The venerable U.S. game show "The Price is Right", which has been on the air since, like, 1911, has memorable sound bites here and here. Not heard in the episode, but highly recommended, is both the trailer for and the movie LOCK-UP (1989), starring Sylvester Stallone (not McCoy), the late Donald Sutherland, and the late John Amos (whose death was announced the day this episode was recorded).

David McAllister, Chair of the European Parliament's Foreign Affairs Committee, talks to Paul Adamson about the rise of the AfD, Germany's influence in the EU, new Commissioner parliamentary hearings and the future of EU-UK relations.

In the latest interview, David McAllister discusses the impact of the rise of the far-right in the European Parliament and the future of the EU on the geopolitical stage. He emphasizes that the center of the European Parliament has maintained its position and calls for strengthening the EU's common foreign and security policy. McAllister also talks about the crucial role of NATO, future challenges related to the US presidential election, and the need to increase support for Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression.

The Mind Robber is one of Jason's Top 60 Doctor Who episodes, and the 1987 novelization by Peter Ling more than does it justice. This week Jason is joined on Doctor Who Literature by Adam Clegg from The Real McCoy podcast to discuss the TV story, the novelization, the two New Adventures sequel novels involving the Land of Fiction... and brief discussions of the new Celestial Toymaker animation, and (as of this release date), Doctor Who's most recent TV broadcast, The Legend of Ruby Sunday.

1986 saw the release of the first two Companions of Doctor Who novels, original full-length books rather than novelizations of Doctor Who TV serials. There would only be one more after this one. Harry Sullivan's War was written by Ian Marter, who died tragically young, on his own 42nd birthday, just a couple of weeks after the book's release. Jim Sangster rejoins me as the guest for this week's book -- and also wrote this week's theme song! A video for Jim's son is found here. Song written by Jim Sangster and sung by Antony Owen. The first 8 minutes are an audio essay about the 1986 baseball season. If you're not a baseball fan, you will be after hearing this essay (or not). Recent guest Dale Smith recently penned an essay about Turlough and the Earthlink Dilemma, the first Companions of Doctor Who novel, covered on this show (by Dale Smith!) just last month.

Talking Europe interviews the chair of the European Parliament's foreign affairs committee, David McAllister. He believes the European Union has been too cautious for too long, and has not proactively defined and defended its interests in the world. He argues that one way to achieve that is to move to a fully-fledged Defence Union over the coming years. McAllister is a German Christian Democrat and a staunch supporter of European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen, who is hoping to lead the Commission for a second five-year term.

What role does Poland currently play in the European Union? Are we really that important on the international stage? Editor-in-chief of EURACTIV.pl, Karolina Zbytniewska, is in conversation with Member of the European Parliament, David McAllister, who is a member of the European People's Party group.

Here on Doctor Who Literature we take a brief scheduled break from the novelizations. It's still May 1986, and not only did we get the Doctor Who novelization of Timelash, but now we get the debut of the short-lived Companions of Doctor Who line. First up, Turlough and the Earthlink Dilemma. Which doubles as the first original Doctor Who novel. Many more would follow. Joining me to break this one down is Doctor Who novelist Dale Smith.

Amy, grew up in the small town of Ararat in rural Victoria, and along with her two sisters, learnt tap, ballet and jazz at her local hall. From there it was the dream run—at 15, Amy was accepted into the Australian Ballet School, before being offered a contract with the Australian Ballet Company on graduation—by the newly appointed director David McAllister no less. For many aspiring dancers, it was the dream run. But from here, Amy's journey changed speeds. In this beautifully candid interview Amy talks about the highs and the lows of her career, about body confidence, becoming pregnant, her mid-year interviews with David McAllister, and ultimately coming to terms with not being made a principal dancer—until magically, 17 years later and newly pregnant with her second child, she was.Amy continues to perform as a Principal Artist with the Australian Ballet, all the while juggling life with her husband Senior Artist Jarryd Madden and their two cherished children Willow and Phoenix.

Krieg in der Ukraine und in Israel: Die Außenpolitik der EU ist vielleicht wichtiger denn je. Etliche Fragen der Zeit lassen sich längst nicht mehr nur national lösen. Ein Anlass also, mit einem Mitglied des Europäischen Parlaments zu reden. David McAllister ist nicht nur ehemaliger niedersächsischer Ministerpräsident, sondern aktueller Vorsitzender des Ausschusses für äußere Angelegenheiten der Europäischen Union. Mit ihm sprechen wir über die EU in aktuellen Krisen. Wie einig präsentiert sich die EU in Fragen wie dem Nahostkonflikt und dem Ukrainekrieg? Ist eine gemeinsame europäische Außen- und Sicherheitspolitik überhaupt realistisch? Außerdem sprechen wir darüber, was die EU hemmt. Wie viel Einfluss haben Ungarn oder Slowakei, die oft eine oppositionelle Gruppe in der EU bilden. Ist in der Hinsicht eine EU-Erweiterung durch mögliche Neumitglieder wie Georgien trotzdem mehr Chance als Risiko, die EU noch mehr zu hemmen? Zum Schluss fragen wir McAllister nach seiner Vision Europas? Wo muss es hin, um weiterhin erfolgreich zu sein? Ist perspektivisch ein europäischer Bundesstaat die beste Möglichkeit, um die Union weiterzuentwickeln? Wenn euch unser Format gefällt, würden wir uns über ein Abo in den Sozialen Medien (@based_medien) oder über 5* auf der Podcastplattform eurer Wahl freuen. Wir hören uns bereits nächsten Sonntag mit einer neuen Folge wieder!

Als sich die sechs Gründerstaaten 1957 im EWG-Vertrag versprachen, „einen immer engeren Zusammenschluss der europäischen Völker zu schaffen“, standen sie mitten im Kalten Krieg. Nach dessen Ende bekräftigten die unterdessen auf zwölf Staaten angewachsene EG dieses Versprechen im Maastrichter Vertrag, mit dem sie 1993 die Europäische Union gründeten. 30 Jahre später prägen der Überfall Russlands auf die Ukraine und der wachsende Einfluss Chinas, der anhaltende Migrationsdruck, der Klimawandel und die unvermindert hohen Staatsschulden der Mitgliedstaaten die Politik in Brüssel und den europäischen Hauptstädten. Dennoch wird heute das Versprechen der Gründer von EWG und EU zuweilen infrage gestellt. Droht der EU also eine Rückabwicklung trotz hohen politischen, wirtschaftlichen, ökologischen und militärischen Drucks von außen? Aber auch von innen wächst der Druck: Die einen wollen mehr europäische Integration und Autonomie, während die anderen mehr nationale Selbständigkeit und nur ein politisches Zweckbündnis auf europäischer Ebene anstreben. Was ist aus dem Maastrichter Vertrag geworden und wohin wird uns die Zeitenwende in Europa führen? Diese Frage diskutiert Vanessa Wahlig mit dem christdemokratischen EU-Außenpolitiker David McAllister in unserem Podcast.

After a run of pre-recorded episodes, Jason is back with a (somewhat) live episode full of current events, Doctor Who news, and tons of feelings. Ross Aitken (@traitken) from Gallifrey's Most Wanted is our guest this week.

Please consider ordering in Outside In Regenerates from ATB Publishing. Jason will have an essay in the forthcoming volume. More information on the late lamented Waldenbooks Otherworlds Club.

Tom and Bob get you ready for all your fall hunts, they get you where you need to go with David McAllister of Les Schwab, and they get you ready for the Sky opener with Todd Daniels of Tall Tails Guide Service. 

In today's episode, a conversation with David McAllister, author of Ballet Confidential. Ballet Confidential takes us backstage, in a manner of speaking, and serves as a wonderfully elucidatory introduction to the world of ballet. McAllister's enthusiasm paired with experience, mastery even, means that Ballet Confidential has something for everyone, from longtime fans of ballet to those who it might have never occurred to step a foot inside the theatre. Mcallister is the former artistic director and principal dancer of The Australian Ballet, which he joined in 1983. Among many major works, he performed principal roles with the company in The Sleeping Beauty, Romeo and Juliet, Don Quixote, Coppelia, Onegin, and Manon.

Internationally-acclaimed former principal dancer and artistic director of The Australian Ballet, David McAllister recently completed his tenure as acting artistic director of the Royal New Zealand Ballet. Throughout his career David has made numerous guest appearances worldwide, dancing with the Bolshoi Ballet. McAllister's book Ballet Confidential: A personal behind the-scenes guide lifts the curtain on a world of tutus, tulle and lycra, the pursuit of perfection, injuries and what it was like dancing for the Princess of Wales.

David McAllister AC former principal dancer and former artistic director of the Australian Ballet has launched his second book “Ballet Confidential: A Personal Behind-The-Scenes Guide, in a powerful overview of one of the performing arts' most alluring and mysterious, physically demanding and mentally rigorous art forms. He says "Today's dancer is a strong, powerful and elite athlete. Both the men and women possess incredible strength, mental toughness and the ability to create feats of skill while having an emotive connection to the audience by creating a mood or telling a story through movement."With characteristic honesty and insight, David explores a raft of issues surrounding the business of dance – from the joys and challenges that face young dancers and their families, the physical stamina required to build a ballet body, to company politics, on-stage disasters, off-stage relationships, the anxieties around weight gain and weight loss, theatre etiquette, the age-old curiosities surrounding boys who choose ballet instead of footy, plus David's thoughts on some of the world's great ballets including Swan Lake, The Nutcracker and Giselle.Beyond the formidable combination of tulle and lycra, how much can an audience ever truly understand about the demands of being a ballet dancer? What really is the pain and pleasure of pointe shoes and jockstraps? Can a wardrobe malfunction derail a scene? ... we're about to find out …Deborah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/what.ive.learnt/Mind, Film and Publishing: https://www.mindfilmandpublishing.com/Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/what-ive-learnt/id153556330Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3TQjCspxcrSi4yw2YugxBkBuzzsprout: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1365850

David McAllister, der Vorsitzende des Auswärtigen Ausschusses im Europaparlament, begrüßt die Einigung, die gestern EU-Kommissionspräsidentin Ursula von der Leyen und der britische Premierminister Rishi Sunak in der umstrittenen Nordirland-Frage gefunden haben. "Das ist ein guter Schritt nach vorne. Ein großer Erfolg für Kommissionspräsidentin von der Leyen", sagt der CDU-Politiker.

Today I'm speaking with David Hallberg. We actually started this season with David McAllister who had just stepped down as Artistic Director of the Australian Ballet. We are now speaking with David Hallberg, the brand new Artistic Director of the Australian Ballet. David was born in a small American town called Rapid City in South Dakota. He started dancing at nine years old, after seeing Fred Astaire on the television. And he only started ballet when he was 13. But by 17, he was selected to do a year at the Paris Opera Ballet School before joining his dream company, ABT, the American Ballet Theatre.He rose swiftly through the ranks, to principal within four years. And then he was the first American to ever be asked to be a principal with the Bolshoi Ballet, the Russian juggernaut that had previously only accepted Russian trained dancers. In this wonderfully engaging interview, David talks about his love of dance, growing up in America, and the moment he was first named as a principal. But David also shares some of his darker moments. He talks about bullying, and the injury that crippled him for over two years, before finally returning to the stage and becoming the new Artistic Director of the Australian Ballet. When we spoke, David had just announced that due to Covid the Australian Ballet won't be performing for the remainder of 2021.For the latest in all things dance, head to fjordreview.com and follow us on Instagram at @fjordreview Host @byclaudialawson

Possibly our biggest and boldest episode yet. The great Philip Hinchcliffe is back to discuss his third and (sadly) final Doctor Who novelization; August 1980's "The Keys of Marinus". Always an honor to speak to Philip, who had not read this book in decades and gained a new perspective on the text. And Jim Sangster (@Monster_Maker) is back to discuss "Marinus" in both TV and book incarnations and why "Marinus" is so important to 21st-century "Doctor Who"... as well as Jim's prolific creative work and DW content, Bette Davis, limericks, and the long-awaited return of everyone's favorite game, "Guess That Cliffhanger". The Bette Davis/George Colouris interview may be found in its entirety here. The "Blake's 7" anthology for which Jim provided illustrations may be found and purchased here.

He told FRANCE 24 that he “very much regrets” moves by the British government under outgoing Prime Minister Boris Johnson to unilaterally breach parts of the post-Brexit deal relating to Northern Ireland. “This protocol was mutually agreed and painstakingly negotiated over many months, and in the end ratified by both sides."

Today I'm speaking with David Hallberg. We actually started this season with David McAllister who had just stepped down as Artistic Director of the Australian Ballet. We are now speaking with David Hallberg, the brand new Artistic Director of the Australian Ballet. David was born in a small American town called Rapid City in South Dakota. He started dancing at nine years old, after seeing Fred Astaire on the television. And he only started ballet when he was 13. But by 17, he was selected to do a year at the Paris Opera Ballet School before joining his dream company, ABT, the American Ballet Theatre.He rose swiftly through the ranks, to principal within four years. And then he was the first American to ever be asked to be a principal with the Bolshoi Ballet, the Russian juggernaut that had previously only accepted Russian trained dancers. In this wonderfully engaging interview, David talks about his love of dance, growing up in America, and the moment he was first named as a principal. But David also shares some of his darker moments. He talks about bullying, and the injury that crippled him for over two years, before finally returning to the stage and becoming the new Artistic Director of the Australian Ballet. When we spoke, David had just announced that due to Covid the Australian Ballet won't be performing for the remainder of 2021.This episode is sponsored by MDM Dancewear.  Listeners are offered a 10% discount code on MDM Dancewear, for a limited time. For the latest in all things dance, head to fjordreview.com and follow us on Instagram at @fjordreview

On the first episode of the second season of 'A Body's Language' we speak to David McAllister. This episode was recorded late last year, in Davids final week as director of The Australian Ballet Company.David shares stories about his dancing days with The  Australian Ballet, working with the likes of Nureyev and Glen Tetley, speaks about pieces of music still make him feel sick with nerves and provides great insights into his philosophies on directorship- reflecting on how The Australian Ballet chose to prioritize the mental health of their dancers during the pandemic while maintaining their world leading physical healthcare program.A graduate of The Australian Ballet School, Perth-born David McAllister began his training with Evelyn Hodgkinson and joined The Australian Ballet in 1983. He was promoted to senior artist in 1986 and to principal artist in January 1989.During his time with the company, he danced many principal roles, including those in The Sleeping Beauty, Don Quixote, Coppélia, Manon, La Sylphide, John Cranko's Onegin and Romeo and Juliet, and Jiří Kylián's Stepping Stones; in 1985 he won Bronze at the Fifth International Ballet Competition in Moscow.Throughout his career, David made numerous guest appearances worldwide, dancing with Bolshoi Ballet, the Kirov Ballet, the Georgian State Ballet, The National Ballet of Canada, Birmingham Royal Ballet, Singapore Dance Theatre and, in 1992, as part of a Royal Gala performance in London in the presence of the Princess of Wales. In 2000, he completed a Graduate Diploma in Arts and Entertainment Management and in 2001, took his final bow as a dancer after a performance of Albrecht in Giselle at the Sydney Opera House, partnering Miranda Coney. In July of that year, David became artistic director of The Australian Ballet. He was awarded a Member of the Order of Australia in the 2004 Australia Day Honours List.Over the next two decades, on his way to becoming The Australian Ballet's longest-serving artistic director, David invigorated the company's repertoire with a series of new commissions from the world's foremost choreographers, including Alexei Ratmansky, Graeme Murphy and Wayne McGregor. He appointed two new resident choreographers, Tim Harbour and Alice Topp, and, through co-productions with leading international companies, secured major works such as Christopher Wheeldon's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland© and Yuri Possokhov's Anna Karenina. As a director/choreographer, he gifted the company with a lavish and widely acclaimed new production of The Sleeping Beauty, funded largely through donations from philanthropic supporters, and three works in the Storytime Ballet series, made especially for young children.Since stepping down as director in January of 2021, David has created a new 'Swan Lake' for Finnish National Ballet, is currently staging Lucas Jervies 'Spartacus', created for The Australian Ballet in 2018 and is in high demand as a guest teacher and choreographer in Australia and abroad.

When David McAllister began ballet lessons in Perth in the 1970s, being a 'ballet boy' was a kind of social death. But his school bullies helped spur him on to become one of the world's best dancers (R)

David McAllister is probably the most well-known face of dance in Australia. He was born in Perth and he was accepted into the Australian Ballet School as a 17-year-old. He graduated and joined the company directly, wowing crowds across the globe. His final performance was in “Giselle” in 2001. And then, three months later, he was named Artistic Director of that same company.During his tenure, he led the company from strength to strength, staging brand new works, touring the company around the world and inspiring a new level of technical brilliance. But he also created a company with meaning—setting up groundbreaking maternity leave policies and health and wellness policies, so that dancers could have careers much longer than they could have ever have dreamed.In 2020, after 20 years as artistic director and four decades with the company, he announced his retirement. It was going to be a year of celebrations, but then Covid—the company closed down last March and they only made it on stage for three performances. David is currently in Helsinki, Finland, where he called me, but he's on his next adventure, staging the Finnish National Ballet's 100th anniversary performance of “Swan Lake.” David speaks candidly about his retirement, what Covid meant for him and the Australian Ballet, and his big regret while he was at the Australian Ballet.This episode of Talking Pointes is sponsored by @ecodancersFor the latest in all things dance, head to fjordreview.com and follow us on Instagram at @fjordreview

David McAllister is a political ally of Chancellor Angela Merkel and Chairman of the European Parliament's Foreign Affairs Committee. Germany is Europe's pre-eminent power, but how will Berlin use that power over the next decade? The composition of the country's next governing coalition has yet to be decided, and there are strategic uncertainties too. How far does Berlin want to push EU integration, and how wide could transatlantic differences become?(Photo: David McAllister speaks at the annual CDU party congress 2014 in Cologne, Germany.
