An Exclusive Interview with Choreographer Anthony Burrell By Amber Bollard

Amber Bollard Interviews Anthony Burrell

We caught one of Australian Entertainment Reporter Amber Bollard’s interviews the other night. It was with the American Dancer, Creative Director and Choreographer, Anthony Burrell. The interview was refreshing and it was a pleasure to watch. Not only did Ms. Bollard’s professionalism come through as usual, but it was very clear that one of her extremely strong talents is the ability to create a very relaxed and non-challenging atmosphere for her guests. She enables the people she talks to, to feel completely at ease, which enables them to be themselves and talk freely.

Mr. Burrell is famous for his ability to blend classical and commercial dance styles and he has choreographed for big brand companies such as Pepsi, Direct TV, DKNY and Ivy Park. He has also worked with Mariah Carey on numerous projects including Mariah’s World, Mariah Carey’s Vegas residency #1 to Infinity, Sweet Sweet Fantasy Tour, Un-Silent Night Christmas and All I Want For Christmas at the Beacon Theater. Anthony has won an MTV Video Music Award for Best Choreography for Beyonce’s Sorry and his recent movie credits include, Lemonade, Bad Grandpa, Jack Ass 4, The Skinny and Leave It On The Floor. He has also appeared on the hit series Empire.

Anthony has been on Broadway as ‘Hank’ in Twyla Tharp’s Musical Come Fly Away and has appeared in countless TV shows including Raising Asia, Abby Ultimate Dance Competition, Good Morning America, So You Think You Can Dance, Dance Moms, Glee and The Oprah Winfrey Show, among many others.
