Kaleidoscope - New Zealand School of Dance

Television (Full Length) – 1984

You always worry about getting a job. The end of each year the pressure always builds. In your first year you worry about if you’re going to get in for a second year. In your second year you worry about if you’re going to get a scholarship. When you get a scholarship you then worry about whether you’re going to get a job with a company. It’s constantly with you.
– New Zealand School of Dance student Fenella Bathfield
I found within that time [her traditional ballet training] that I had something else to express, and the classical dance format for me was, too limiting.
– Tutor Liz Davies, on classical versus modern
Fenella's focus is classical and this is her final year at the school. What does the future hold for her?
– Reporter Fiona Copland, on dance student Fenella Bathfield
