Skating The Starlight Express

How does a boy from a small California town end up traveling the world—teaching roller skating? Starlight Express, Andrew Lloyd Webber's immensely popular, long-running musical about racing trains is performed entirely on roller skates. "Skating The Starlight Express" tells the story of how Michal, hired to coach and train the performers of the Broadway production "to be comfortable on their skates," went on to become the trainer for Starlight productions around the world. Michal gives you a glimpse behind the scenes and reveals some of the challenges the actors face (his Skate School training is just one!) in preparing themselves for performing Starlight Express on stage.
