Hermione and Kat sit down with Alexander Campbell, principal dancer of the Royal Ballet to talk about 'The Limit', a new show which ran at the Royal Opera House in October.


Alexander talks about the process behind creating a new dance production, adapting dance from a play, and the challenges of working in new ways. Hermione and Kat also chat to Alexander about the realities of ballet, and why the dance form is, and should be, for everyone.


Many thanks to Alexander for being the very first guest on 'I don't see the Pointe', to Sean Flanagan for his help with making it all happen, and to the whole team behind The Limit for creating such a spectacular and moving show.


'The Limit' is adapted from Sam Steiner's play 'Lemons, Lemons, Lemons, Lemons, Lemons', and is described as a modern classic.
