3.Favourite musical, and why?
Any musicals with great dancing in, such as 42nd street, Crazy For You or Copacabana.

5.If you could invite 3 people to dinner (dead or alive), who would they be?
Busby Barkley - to ask how he came up with all his great ideas for the wonderful choreography.

Princess Diana - to talk about her family, the royals and what really happened.
