Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Tell us about your memorable experience on being featured as a dancer at the premiere for The Great Gatsby ?
Ms. Amelia Lowe:
The most memorable moment for me when I was performing at the premier for the Great Gatsby was seeing Leonardo DiCaprio in person. I had been joking with the other dancers the entire week of rehearsals about how all I wanted was to meet DiCaprio. We had finished performing and we were dancing on the floor with the guests at the party.
One of my friends tapped me on the shoulder and pointed to a tall, well-dressed man a few feet from us. It was him! My knees buckled and I became melted butter. I wish that I could have played it cool but I was a complete mess. For someone who has had a movie star crush on him since I first saw him onscreen, it was a very surreal moment.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Who has been your inspiration and motivation in choosing dancing as your profession ?
Ms. Amelia Lowe:
One of my biggest inspirations growing up was the movie Chicago. I can’t single out any specific actress or dancer in that film because they all played such a huge role for me. I used to watch it on repeat so I could learn the songs and then I would make up my own dances to the songs. Ironically I was always Roxy Hart when I was little and playing pretend. Now I look like Velma Kelly and I find her so much more interesting. Chicago is still one of my favorite movies ever.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Tell us about your dancing experience with Ellenore Scott in his company ELSCO ?
Ms. Amelia Lowe:
Dancing for Ellenore Scott, fellow SYTYCD alum, in her company ELSCO has been such a great experience for me. She allows the dancers to have creative input in the choreographic process and she puts such a high value on the work that we do. I’ve found in New York especially that it’s hard to find companies where you can be both creatively fulfilled and actually get paid well for your work. Ellenore always pays us for our rehearsals and performances. In a field where most company directors feel that “exposure” and “experience” are enough to compensate for your long hours of work, it’s great to have someone backing her dancers up and giving them what they deserve.
