Shirley Russell
Dancer

I can remember the very first time I went on stage I couldn't believe the size of the Opera House.

I wanted to be a dance teacher but I had to give it up. I just wanted to dance and that was it.

Blackpool has a lot to offer, there is always so much going on. It always seemed exciting especially as a child.

It was so exciting always when they shouted overtures and beginners please, everyone was so excited.
