Kevin talks to actor, singer and musician, Jon Robyns, one of the most prolific and respected stage stars in the UK, and the star of such shows as Avenue Q, Les Miserables and Hamilton.

It’s a revealing, candid conversation in which Jon talks about the physical side of performing, the impact of the coronavirus upon the theatre at large, and his fascinating journey through the world of drama and entertainment.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Acting and singing are more than jobs. They are an intrinsic part of every performers psyche and physiology. This has never been more effectively demonstrated than by the lockdown, which has had far greater effects upon those in the theatre than merely economic.
• The voice is as important a muscle as any for theatre performers. When it is not put to use, or given the correct “workout”, it becomes more difficult to use. It need to be exercised like any other muscle.
• Performing on stage alongside others is an exercise in trust. We need to feel safe and secure in allowing our performance to be supported by others. This is why sometimes those in the profession feel rightly anxious about celebrities who decide to embark upon a career on the stage.
• Personal feelings should always be put aside when performing with others. As long as the job is being done well, we must compartmentalise personal opinions in favour of doing excellent work.
• Critiquing one’s self effectively and objectively, is a skill that all great performers develop over time. It is as useful as listening to audience or critical reviews.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Frustrated and cross, yes! Bored? No!’ - Approx 4 mins

‘You have to trust the people around you. You have to be able to throw them the metaphoric ball’ - 34:40

‘It’s a 51-49 situation. I never know which way I’m going to fall with it’ - 1:12:00

‘We are all our worst critics’ - 1:26:50

‘It doesn’t get any bigger than Jon Robyns!’ – 1:51:30

In the tenth part of his mini-series entitled ’Strictly Speaking’, Kevin invites you into the conversation around some of the greatest dances, partners and moments throughout his Strictly Come Dancing journey!

It’s a return engagement with fellow Strictly professional, Janette Manrara, about the second half of her run in the 2014 series of the show, where along with Eastenders star, Jake Wood, she danced all the way to week 12!

You can follow along with Janette and Jake’s story by watching each dance using the links provided in the show notes of this episode!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Halloween Week brings unique challenges. Music is a primary concern, but the concept, also, has to be balanced between being scary enough for Halloween, but also family friendly.
• The intense scrutiny upon dancers and their partners on the show, has led to some awkward conversations. The media are keen to pounce upon any signals of a deepening relationship between partners, as it makes for a sensational headline.
• To be a professional on the show, is to be brave enough to make the difficult decisions. Following your instincts and making tough choices, even late into the rehearsal week, is the responsibility of any pro who takes their job seriously.
• It is the job of the professional to dream the concept into life, but the finished production is a collaboration between this imagination and the incredible skills of the technical magicians who work on the show.
• By pouring your unique creativity and singular gifts into each and every performance, and by working as hard as we can, we create something timeless.

BEST MOMENTS

’Trying to come up with an original idea for Halloween Week is a... “Nightmare!”’ - 1:25

‘I didn’t want to rock the boat!’ - 32:20

‘How would you feel… about twerking?’ - 57:30

’That is the magic of our team’ - 1:23:15

‘You want to be remembered, and talked about for having done something special’ - 1:40:20

In the ninth part of his mini-series entitled ’Strictly Speaking’, Kevin invites you into the conversation around some of the greatest dances, partners and moments throughout his Strictly Come Dancing journey!

This week, Kevin talks to fellow Strictly professional, Janette Manrara, about her incredible run of success in the 2014 series of the show, in which she was partnered with Eastenders star, Jake Wood!

You can follow along with Janette and Jake’s story by watching each dance using the links provided in the show notes of this episode!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Sometimes the preconceptions of not just the celebrity, but the image they generally portray on screens, is taken into account when selecting music and performance concepts.
• The job of a professional is not just to choreograph the dances, but also to investigate and familiarise themselves with their partner, exploring the many different ways in which their image can be matched, or indeed subverted, against audience expectations.
• There’s a delicate balancing act between inspiring your partner and instructing them to the point of fatigue and disillusionment. Being a dancer and being a mentor are two very distinct arts.
• By the time the halfway mark arrives in a series, there’s a sense that people have selected their favourites, and will continue to vote for them. Therefore it’s important to mark yourself out in the first half of the series.

BEST MOMENTS

’What?! You’re the voice of the GEICO Gecko!’ - Approx 5 mins in

‘You don’t know from that first moment, what kind of energy they’re going to give you’ - 25:40

‘I was like oh my God, I think we’ve done something pretty amazing here!’ - 42:10

‘I always feel that it’s important to get out there early with some bangers!’ - 46:30

‘It was kind of a rock-star moment’ - 1:04:05

In the eighth part of a new mini-series entitled ’Strictly Speaking’, Kevin invites you into the conversation around some of the greatest dances, partners and moments throughout his Strictly Come Dancing journey!

This week, Kevin again talks to Eastenders star Kellie Bright, his partner in the 2015 series of the show, about the second half of their journey, which saw them waltz all the way to the final!

You can follow along with Kellie’s story by watching each dance using the links provided in the show notes of this episode!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• An additional challenge can come when you suddenly find yourself in the dance-off against someone you’ve come to love and befriend. Victory can feel dispiriting.
• When you’re in need of a comeback, it’s always best to pull out the big gun ideas. If you win, it gives you new momentum. If you lose, you go out swinging.
• Victory comes as swiftly as defeat. One minute you can be sitting pretty, and the next you can be rock bottom. All you can do is your best.
• The joy of dancing, and becoming one with the music, is the addictive part of Strictly. Winning is wonderful, but many contestants simply wish to dance on.
• Ultimately, the greatest victory is the experience itself. The effort, passion and experience are the true prizes.

BEST MOMENTS

’Looking back now I feel incredibly proud’

‘We’re going all out for this one. Kitchen sink!’

‘My hips were not happy!’

‘I now knew the madness of Strictly…'

In the seventh part of a new mini-series entitled ’Strictly Speaking’, Kevin invites you into the conversation around some of the greatest dances, partners and moments throughout his Strictly Come Dancing journey!

This week, Kevin talks to Eastenders star Kellie Bright, his partner in the 2015 series of the show, about the fascinating dynamic between dance partners, the terror of late changes to a routine, and the odd feeling of playing “yourself” as an actor.

You can follow along with Kellie’s story by watching each dance using the links provided in the show notes of this episode!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• It’s as important for the professionals to appear as appealing as the celebrity partners during the initial process of pairing. It can be slightly nerve-wracking for the pros who are not as outgoing or extroverted as the others.
• The dynamic can be altered according to how new a pro is to the show. If they are trying to establish themselves on the show, it can lead to a greater sense of invention, and a need to stand out.
• Even the smallest variation in a carefully rehearsed piece of choreography can create a ripple that begins as unfamiliarity, and spreads to become a feeling of doubt. For those untrained to deal with “on the fly” changes, it can prove an anxious experience.
• Being on Strictly requires actors, who are generally playing the part of someone else, to be themselves. After a career spent inhabiting different personalities, to suddenly play the part of “yourself” can be difficult.
• It’s important to feel some kind of emotional connection with the music; to feel some sense of energy or joy or passion by the music that dictates the dance.

BEST MOMENTS

’That was the most scared I’ve ever been in my life'

‘I called him a very rude name, and told him to… “go away”!'

‘I don’t remember much else from that week apart from the terror...’

‘I wanted to do a routine where I didn’t have to hold a lightsaber or a wand or something’

‘You were born to play Harry Potter!'

In the sixth part of a new mini-series entitled ’Strictly Speaking’, Kevin invites you into the conversation around some of the greatest dances, partners and moments throughout his Strictly Come Dancing journey!

Kevin is joined again by Amy Dowden, a fellow Strictly pro, about her journey through the 2019 series, where she was partnered with Karim Zeroual, and waltzed all the way to the final! In the second part of their conversation, Amy talks you through the second half of their journey, from Week 7 to the final.

You can follow along with Amy’s story by watching each dance using the links provided in the show notes of this episode!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• A negative scoring week can mean more pressure to perform well next time, but it can also mean that if a reversal of fortunes does occur, then your story and journey become that much more interesting.
• The great dances are the ones that flow organically from the story itself. This was also true for the great dancers of the past on film, who used the story itself to devise dances, and not vice versa
• Dwelling upon negativity and failure never helps us to develop. When we are hit by a setback, we need to dust ourselves off and get back to work.
• Real emotion is all a part of a great dance. In a way, dancers are like actors, performing in order to elicit an emotional response. But it must be authentic.
• Contrasts are incredibly important, especially in shows involving more than one dance. For the final, three dances are required, and each must stand out in terms of tempo and style, from the others.

BEST MOMENTS

’They want to make the best Saturday night show they possibly can’

‘When we get into the studio on Monday, it’s put in the past and we move on’

‘It’s a shame your body’s not doing what your face is doing!’

‘I wanted to show what Karim would look like as Fred Astaire’

‘If you work hard, your dreams can come true'

In the fifth part of a new mini-series entitled ’Strictly Speaking’, Kevin invites you into the conversation around some of the greatest dances, partners and moments throughout his Strictly Come Dancing journey!

Kevin is joined this time by Amy Dowden, a fellow Strictly pro, about her journey through the 2019 series, where she was partnered with Karim Zeroual, and waltzed all the way to the final! In this first part of the conversation, Amy talks you through weeks 1 to 6.

You can follow along with Amy’s story by watching each dance using the links provided in the show notes of this episode!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Being partnered on Strictly is something of a paradox. A partner with some dance experience means less work for the pro, but a partner with less experience tends to have less expectation, and can be more endearing to audiences.
• The mental game is as important as the physical one. Early victories and high scores can saddle dancers with huge expectations, and sometimes the only way is down.
• Finding the balance between generosity and discipline marks the good teachers from the great ones. Pros must get the best out of their partners, but as gently as possible.
• The mentality of true dancers is to always push through, even when physical health hampers our ability to do so.
• As a choreographer, you must follow the story of the music itself. When we try to crowbar our own ideas into a musical setting they can seem ill-fitting.

BEST MOMENTS

‘You had me at a park bench and a maroon suit!’

‘It’s really important to get the best out of yourself and your partner’

‘You can’t rely on last week’s result because there’s an all-new leader board next week’

‘We need to show that we’re willing to learn!’

In the fourth part of a new mini-series entitled ’Strictly Speaking’, Kevin invites you into the conversation around some of the greatest dances, partners and moments throughout his Strictly Come Dancing journey!

Kevin is joined once again by his real-life dance partner, BBC presenter Stacey Dooley. Kevin and Stacey discuss the dances and stories that took them all the way to the Strictly crown, and invite you to watch along by using the special links below!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Strictly’s entertainment factor allows for the melding of contemporary dance styles with the production values of yesteryear. 
• Maximising your impact is all about timing. It’s knowing when it’s time to bring out the big guns, and performing the big dances when it counts.
• Physical training for Strictly only gets harder as you go on. By the time you reach the final third of the show, endurance is almost as important as technical skill.
• There can only ever be one winner. It’s vital to keep control of your humility, especially in the later stages of any competition, as the threat of disappointment looms as large as the prospect of victory.
• Stacey and Kevin’s eventual victory is proof that entertainment and emotional connection play a huge part in the journey of any performer. 

BEST MOMENTS

‘You look like a professional dancer. It’s why I’m so proud of you’

‘I can’t decide whether this is naff beyond naff, or it’s an absolute stroke of genius’

’The river is going to get you’

‘I actually can’t bear to watch. I’m watching through my hands!'

In the third part of a new mini-series entitled ’Strictly Speaking’, Kevin invites you into the conversation around some of the greatest dances, partners and moments throughout his Strictly Come Dancing journey! 

This time, Kevin is joined by the partner with whom he shared his greatest success, both on-and-off the screen, BBC presenter Miss Stacey Dooley. Together they lifted the Strictly crown in 2018, but the journey was long and filled with unexpected surprises… In this week’s show, Kevin and Stacey discuss their first six weeks together on the show, and invite you to watch along by using the special links below! 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Secrecy is the key to stimulating the viewers’ and the pro’s interest. No-one finds out who they’re partnered with until the very moment it’s revealed on air! 

• It takes several weeks to develop the trust and friendship that inspires true creativity in dance. Stacey and Kevin hit it off almost immediately, which led to some wonderful innovation early on. 

• The concepts behind the stories in Strictly dances have a sell-by date. By catching the zeitgeist you can add to the audience involvement, but if you miss it, it can send the wrong kind of message. 

• People watch Strictly to be entertained, not to see the most classic examples of dance. The memorable pairings are the ones who embrace that concept. 

BEST MOMENTS

‘I was cheddar because I was the most common!’ 

‘You said I looked like a car salesman walking you to the nearest car!’ 

’No-one watches Strictly so that they can see people taking themselves seriously’ 

‘I’ll sacrifice precision for fun!’

In the second of a new mini-series entitled ’Strictly Speaking’, Kevin invites you into the conversation around some of the greatest dances, partners and moments throughout his Strictly Come Dancing journey!

This week, Kevin revisits the second half of 2013’s series which saw him appear for the first time on the show, and which saw him partnered with Susanna Reid. Kevin and Susanna managed to get all the way to the final, and performed several spellbinding dances along the way.

In this week’s show, Kevin talks you through the creative process behind each performance, as well as the impact of appearing for the first time on Britain’s most popular television show.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Many of us have been given the gift of time right now. Consequently, there has been a sense of pressure on people to achieve or develop in some ways. But if we need to be at peace, then we need to grant ourselves the permission to do that.
• In all performances, you’re looking for the perfect balance of energy, artistry and emotion. Storytelling through dance can achieve all three, and the main job of any choreographer is to create that narrative experience.
• To achieve success, we should focus on the work itself instead of the expected outcomes. Only by living in the moment can we really exceed our expectations.
• Performances are sometimes executed in a non-traditional way in order to up the entertainment factor and win votes. It’s a delicate balance between purist dance and mass appeal.
• Music is a crucial ingredient in the appeal of any dance. It is a vital way of involving the audience in the rhythm and soul of the performance.

BEST MOMENTS

‘What I’m really interested in is what everyone chooses to do with this gift of time’

’To truly affect an audience, you’ve got to perform it well’

‘We need to show something dynamic!’

‘Dancing is an art. It’s about expression. It’s not a sport'
