They talk about acting and emotions onstage, including their favorite roles, techniques and practices, and hilarious memories. Whether conveying the characters in a narrative ballet or achieving the appropriate expressiveness in an abstract work, the dancers describe the need for extensive preparation\u2014and life experience\u2014to achieve an instinctual, organic performance. As Sara relates, the &quot;half a second&quot; when she crosses the barrier from backstage and into the lights is the moment when the character or emotion manifests.
