Meet David Plumpton - Truly a National Treasure

© 2019 Jane Lambert: all rights reserved




















There can be few dancers, dance teachers or dance students anywhere in the world who have not trained to the music of David Plumpton.  Here he is at The Dancehouse in Manchester with artists of Powerhouse Ballet and their choreographer Yvonne Charlton of Dolstra Dance Centre at IJsselstein in the Netherlands who were lucky enough to hear him play for them in person.   Many more know him through his DVDs Modern Melodies, New Classics and West End to Broadway.

David will meet some of his many friends over Zoom at 15:00 this Sunday.   If you want to hear him speak and maybe ask him a question or show your appreciation, register through Eventbrite.  Click that green button marked "Register" and follow the instructions.

As in previous Stage Door events, I shall ask David a few questions about his early life and career and then invite questions from the floor.   So if you have ever wanted why we do glissés to the Muppet Show or whether he has plans for another recording this is your opportunity to find out.

As this is still an experimental service we are not charging for setting this up but we would ask you to contribute to Yorkshire Ballet Seminars.
