Helene Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 On its Facebook page, Ballet Arizona just published a link to an article in "Arizona Lifestyle Magazine" that profiles five of its dancers -- Jillian Barrell, Russell Clarke, Tsu-Chia Huang, Shea Johnson, and Astrit Zejnati -- with a stunning photo of each by Rosalie O'Connor. http://www.pageturnp...1-AZLS/117.html I didn't realize the extent to which dancers can get offers based on the audition DVDs they submit. (I know if I were a young dancer in Seattle, I'd try to get Linsday Thomas to create mine.) The profiles are full of interesting info: How and how badly Russell Clarke was injured a few years ago and that he and Breanna Starke are planning a wedding for 2013, that Huang studies at a pastry school over the summer, that Jillian Barrell expected to go to college, how Astrit Zejnati started in dance, and Shea Johnson's history with Metropolitan Classical ballet.
