Dame Beryl's life is defined by her love of dance. Both as a
ballerina and an Artistic Director she helped make British ballet
the powerhouse it is today. Knowing and working with virtually
everyone in dance, she reveals fascinating insights into the
people, characters and institutions that made up world dance in the
20th century. Grey began her dancing career with the Sadler's Wells
Ballet in 1943 at the unprecedented early age of 14. Her natural
virtuosity saw her quickly promoted, dancing her first Giselle at
17, and Princess Aurora at 19. Dame Beryl was the first English
ballerina to dance at the Bolshoi and the Kirov, as well as the
Peking Ballet. Asked to become Artistic Director of what is now
English National Ballet, her love of dance allowed her to navigate
the tricky passage from ballerina to leader of a dance company.
This autobiography proves a fascinating and personal insight into
and extraordinary woman, her life and career.
