Ballet Central 2005: Richard's First Diary

Dear Diary,

Hi! My name’s Richard Bermange, I’m 20 and I was born in Essex. I’m in my 3rd year at Central School of Ballet and at the moment we’re all working hard on the rep’ for the Ballet Central tour next year.

I started dancing when I was about eight so I’ve been doing this for nearly 13 years now. I started at a little ballet school in my village and then went to a bigger school in Harlow before starting at Central School in September 2002. I’ve had a great time at Central and I’ve made some great friends here, it’ll be a sad day when we graduate in eight months time. When I graduate in July, I hope to get a job in a Classical Ballet company, so I’m just starting to audition for companies in the UK and Europe.

This week at Central we’ve been working with Cathy Marston on a new work for our tour. It’s a really challenging piece but it’s a lot of fun working on it. Cathy is creating a pas de deux on me so my arms are really aching at the moment! She said it’s good for me and some day I’ll thank her! She’s really nice to work with.

Well that’s about it for my first Ballet.co diary entry. I’ll write again in the New Year, with news about auditions and how the tour is going.

Richard


Me!
