Arlene Phillips: Winning Oliviers and dancing towards every opportunity
12 Jun 2024
Whether you know Dame Arlene Phillips' work from Hot Gossip, Strictly Come Dancing, her legendary music videos, film work or the West End and Broadway shows she has choreographed, her ability to turn her hand to any brief and keep moving forward is unmatched. On this episode, we learn about how Arlene grew up with grit and determination to earn her own money and ultimately gain independence, taking every opportunity in her stride. As often the only woman in the room, Arlene shares her advice for people starting their careers, how to move on from disappointment and mistakes swiftly, and how she has achieved huge success in her 80s with a recent Olivier Award added to her glittering CV. Danni and Laura also dig into how the cost of living crisis has helped turn us into a nation of savers and why keeping your pot in cash could be costing you thousands of pounds.
