‘Akane is the hardest worker. I find it difficult to keep up, but it’s amazing to aspire to. She’s also so caring, but because<br />
she’s shy, she won’t always show it. We just performed in Giselle together and our characters were in love, so playing those roles came naturally.’<br />
‘We first bonded when we were both injured, and because of that, I felt like I’d lost part of myself. Being able to support each other<br />
through that difficult time was so encouraging for me to get through the recovery. Ben likes sharing things with people. He’s an open person,<br />
whereas I’m quite shy; it takes time for me to be myself. When I saw how easily he talked about his feelings, I wanted to be more like him.’
