In today’s episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down and chatting with Xander Parish, a principal dancer with one of the most prestigious and historic ballet companies in the world: the Mariinsky Theatre. Join me as we discuss Xander’s career, his move to Russia, and his accomplishment of being awarded as an Officer of the Order of the British Empire. Along with how his life has looked throughout this pandemic, and how he sees our current situation in the arts world as an opportunity to try and do new things in regards to performing our art. Please enjoy. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
