00:30Vividly, I remember the point in the Red Shoes ballet where in the shot of where Vicki Page

00:38goes straight on to point, that's the one thing that was in my head, I know this film.

00:42It was much darker than I remembered as a child and had a lot more adult themes I could

00:47relate to more as a grown up.

00:49You think of it as obviously this fairy tale that we've heard of of these perched red shoes

00:53but the parallels to the real world are uncanny.

00:56Marisha was obviously incredible in it, to then step into her red shoes, if you will,

01:02you know, in the fairy tale she essentially dances herself to death and so portraying

01:07that as a dancer I had to dance myself to death.

01:09The costumes were beautiful.

01:10Yeah, I was just about to say, the costumes from the film are so iconic.

01:14I don't want any more.

01:15Yeah.

01:16Give me the red shoes.

01:17I'll take them.

01:18Physically it's the hardest show I've ever done, emotionally it was the hardest show

01:21I've ever done and I remember coming off that dress rehearsal kind of feeling like I'd left

01:25everything on stage, my heart, my soul, blood, sweat and tears and I remember thinking I

01:30can never ever ever do that again.
