People I admire
2. Stephen Mear
Stephen Mear is the choreographer of the moment. His works currently appear on Broadway, the West End and many touring productions across the world. His work is innovative and inspiring which has led him to receive numerous awards including Laurence Olivier award and Tony award for best choreography.
I admire him for the works he has produced, the performing career he has had and for the fact he has not let it affect him and still treats everyone with respect and care. I have been fortunate enough to work with Stephen Mear (if briefly) and see the way he executes his ideas. He is so clear and precise, that to work with him as a dancer is easier than most choreographers. Mear’s ability to dictate means his work is clean and all ideas are maximised (which is what every choreographer wants!) Consequently I admire him for achieving his vision.
His choreographic works include ‘The Little Mermaid’, ‘Mary Poppins’, ‘On the town’, ‘Anything Goes’ and ‘Acorn Anitques’ to name but a few. Each time his choreography is different and exciting, however there always his obvious style which has been influenced by his Matt Mattox training. I love his work because I have been Matt Mattox trained and I find it inspirational to see him take set movements and make them original over and over again.
Stephen Mear also boasts a performing career any artist would be jealous of and can’t help but admire. He has appeared in Evita, Cats, 42nd Street, Follies and Some like it Hot on the West End. Even if performing was his only career path I would admire him, but with his choreographic resume as well I cannot help but tilt my head back and look up at him with admiration.
