I want audiences to feel involved in what is happening on the stage. I'd like them to see new ballets exploring problems they can identity with. They should be gripped, as one is gripped by a drama. I want the dancers to be better actors than dancers normally are. For instance, I'd like to see them being more interested in plays, in discovering how actors achieve their effects. Actors today are learning to dance, and I think it would be to everyone's advantage if dancers returned the compliment.
