She talks to Akram about her grandmother buying her a ballet video aged three, how the stories she saw enveloped her, and the drama of dance became her all-consuming passion.</p><p>She says ‘as a small person’ she likes to surprise people by using the stage to the max – her big jumps ‘eating up the space’ and feeling like flying. And how although she doesn’t enjoy swimming on the surface of water, underwater she feels at home, ‘like a fish’.</p><p>And Francesca opens up to Akram about the way she gets her body and mind into gear as she prepares to be confident and calm for a performance.</p><p><br></p><p>Move to Live is a podcast brought to you by <a href=\"https://marquee.tv/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Marquee TV</a> and <a href=\"https://www.tandemproductions.uk/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Tandem Productions</a> and is available on all main podcast platforms.</p><p><br></p><p>If you’d like to get in touch with the show you can email: <a href=\"mailto:movetolivepodcast@gmail.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">movetolivepodcast@gmail.com</a></p><p><br></p><p>Or get in touch on our socials:</p><p><br></p><p>Twitter: <a href=\"https://twitter.com/MarqueeArtsTV\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@marqueeartstv</a></p><p>Instagram: <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/marqueeartstv/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@marqueeartstv</a></p><p>Facebook: <a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/marqueetv\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.facebook.com/marqueetv</a></p><p>Youtube: <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/@MarqueeTV\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.youtube.com/@MarqueeTV</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>The show is also available as a video podcast via Marquee TV - <a href=\"https://marquee.tv/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://marquee.tv/</a>, the leading streaming platform showcasing arts and culture to millions of arts fans around the world.</p><p><br></p><p>#movetolivepodcast</p><p><br></p><p>Credits:</p><p><br></p><p>Director and Producer: Alex Anderson</p><p>Assistant Producer: Marion Bettsworth</p><p>Researcher: Charlotte Barbour-Condini</p><p>Executive Producer: Sarah Devonald</p><p>Music: Jay Witsey and Aref Durvesh</p><p><br></p><p><br></p>","author_name":"Marquee TV"}
