Quotes

"I use collage, lighting and composition and so on and try to look at dance in as many different ways as possible, I try never to repeat myself.”"
"In 1976 Albert Finney was at the National doing Tamburlaine and Peter Hall was directing. I was asked to go in at a dress rehearsal and take pictures. It was a long production, about four hours, so I got a load of shots, I was snapping everything. At the end Albert came out in his white dressing gown and Peter asked him everything was okay. He stood there and shouted ‘No, everything is not f****** well okay. All I’ve heard for the last four hours is ‘click clickclick click’."
