Sarah Kundi’s March diary

Hello again to everyone.

Countdown: we now have 2 weeks till our tour starts- I’m getting really excited with what we’re about to embark upon as young professionals….!

Since my last diary entry, things have been running smoothly…… We’re all just so busy and focused now that the start of the tour is literally round the corner…!

We now have a total of nine pieces in the programme and on Wednesday 25th Feb, we presented these pieces at a Preview evening held at Central School of Ballet for Central Friends. It was a success - the audience seemed to enjoy their evening as much as we enjoyed the joy of performing for them.
I had the pleasure of dancing the role of the Tennis Girl from ‘A Simple Man’ which I felt proud and privileged to do - I will persevere to perfect this role as the tour progresses….Gillian Lynne will be coming in next week to rehearse us all in the piece- it will be good to get valuable feedback from the choreographer!

On the Preview Evening, there was a fantastic surprise in store for me - Colin Ede, a Central Friend and artist, presented me with a painting that he did of me( originally from a shot taken of me with HRH Countess of Wessex for HELLO! Magazine). I did not expect to be given such a lovely painting which was executed in oils on canvas. I personally thanked him. Not only is he a gifted artist, but a very generous and nice person too. Colin is usually commissioned by Central Friends to do paintings of Ballet Central dancers and poses and he is also interested in maybe doing another painting of me in my current production shot of the Tennis Girl (which is featured on the back of the Ballet Central 2004 leaflet) - that would be great!!!

Regarding auditions, I’m looking forward to mine with Northern Ballet Theatre on Sunday 21st March- this will consist of a ballet class and if successful, you stay for a physio assessment and a repertoire class afterwards…..Then we wait for the news, the news being…… have I got a contract?........Wish me luck!... Fingers crossed!.......

Take Care till next time- wishing everyone the best.

Sarah
