124. Capri: there's no such thing as original ideas (and that's fine! you're fine)
Show Notes

Capri Aspe is a little bit of everything: ballerina, composer, contra caller, puppeteer, film editor, travelling performer... and she's not afraid to add new things to that list!

We talk about:

  • Using existing works (eg. Barney) as a springboard for learning new skills
  • Creativity as the arrangement of different types of media
  • How to keep perfectionism from bogging you down? Quotas.
  • Weight lifting is for ballerinas too

Check our her children's show, Sugar Plum Celeste and the Big Book of Ballet:  https://sugarplumceleste.com/. I've watched a few episodes so far and honestly I think it was made for me haha "The experts in Celeste's ballet book are giving conflicting advice. How can a fairy make progress when the instructions aren't clear?" okay just @me already
