New Breed unearths emerging Australian talent

Sarah Navin started ballet at age 6, as she couldn’t walk in a straight line without skipping and twirling. As well as studying classical dance, she went on to perform in hip-hop ensembles, cheerleading squads, and developed a love of musical theatre – starring in shows such as The Boy From Oz, Legally Blonde The Musical and Rock of Ages. She is a Sydney-based television journalist by day, and swaps political reporting for dancing at night, either performing or attending performances – where she enjoys the chance to write creatively through a critiquing lens.
