PRESENTER (REPORTER): You have probably seen our guest on ITV’s new show “Dance” or maybe you have been to the theater where she is now performing ‘Aladdin’.
After dancing with the ballet company for five years, she is starting to break into principal roles and discover what it means to be at the top of their profession.
