In an interview withBroadway.com,Ariana revealed what she learned from DWTSand her partner Pasha when it comes to preparing for Broadway.
“In terms of ways to hold and carry my body, like really specific, you know little details with performance. But also just down to really believing in the fact that I am prepared and I’m ready,” she explained.
“And he always says that when it’s time to perform, I give 50% more that I didn’t have in dress rehearsal, that I didn’t have in rehearsal, even when I thought I was going full out. So right now, I’m just leaning into that and knowing that while I’m preparing, when it’s time, I’ll be ready.”
