I love this episode with my friend Omri Drumlevich. Omri and I worked together in Sleep No More for many years. While in the show, I could always count on him for good conversation in the dressing room. While we spent a good portion of our time fighting on stage, he's such a beautiful person that I get to know.
In our conversation we dive into a lot of big ideas about the dance world and how a career progresses over time. This is a great episode for dancers who are just getting their feet wet in their career and also dancers who feel like they are at a turning point in their careers.
