A dancer in wartime

Gillian Lynne is one of the world's pre-eminent choreographers, the groundbreaking creative force behind CATS and THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. She began her career as a ballerina, learning to dance alongside Margot Fonteyn, Moira Shearer, Beryl Grey and Frederick Ashton during the Second World War. A DANCER IN WARTIME tells the story of Gillian's extraordinary childhood. From Miss Madeleine Sharp's Ballet Class for Young Ladies in Bromley, to being evacuated with her theatre school to rural Leicestershire; from performing in the West End with doodlebugs falling, to touring a devastated Europe ... and then the call to join Sadler's Wells.
