Re: L i Cunxin
Thank you for the opportunity to hear / meet this inspirational man last
night.
I cried reading his book, cried watching the movie and am pleased to report
that while there were moments when I came close to tears during his presentation, his humour in the face of such adversity saved the day!
P.S. – looking forward to Romeo & Juliette in July and the Nutcracker in
December, which was the 1st ballet I went to as a child and was so
mesmerised was almost locked in the theatre as everyone around me had
departed – I was spellbound and in awe of what I had just experienced and
totally unaware that everyone around me had left!
Hi Jeanette, so glad you enjoyed it. It was a fantastic night headlined by an amazing man. Thanks for coming!
