dirac Posted May 3, 2020 Author Share Posted May 3, 2020 Q&A with David McAllister by Claudia Lawson for the Fjord Review. Quote CL: Some incredible works were put together for your final season and there’s been an unexpected halt that no one could have ever envisaged . . . what will happen? DM: Look, I feel, at the moment, for me the most important thing is that the company and society generally comes back from this in a really healthy and positive way. I mean, I’ve got to say I’ve had such a great time at the ballet. Having the experiences that I’ve had in the company has been celebration enough. And I think it’s really important for David [Hallberg] to be able to start his tenure at the beginning of next year and hit the ground running and have that moment to take the reins and do all the exciting things that he wants to do. So, I think this is just one of those things that’s happened. Link to comment
