What career moment are you most proud of?
The Shimmering Extraordinary. A film directed by Fx Goby where I got to share my journey and experience with ability and disability. It was filmed at the Tate Modern, which was a dream to dance in, particularly having grown up in London.

What’s your favourite ballet to watch?
Revisor by Crystal Pite. It stretched every element of the performers and showcased a whole new level of theatre and dance. It revolutionised narrative dance.

What do you like to do on your days off?
Brunch, travelling, art galleries. Anything with exploring a new place with good coffee and food! And art galleries I found for me have always had a calming vibe.

What’s your hype song?
‘Heater’ by Flume

What’s your favourite book/movie?
My favourite movie at the moment is ‘Everything, Everywhere, All at Once’ because it’s super artistic, crazy creative with how it gets a beautiful story across.

If you could have one superpower, what would it be?
Teleportation – I could visit friends and family in a second!

What’s the best thing about going on tour with the company?
The social aspect of it all, with all departments. Plus, on international tours exploring a new country/city!

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?
Don’t over stress, everything is temporary.

Repertoire Highlights: Emergence, Swan Lake, Maze, Drosselmeyer (The Nutcracker)

‘the Chinese divertissement, choreographed by Annie Au, and first seen in the 2021 production, is a highlight, danced with expressive lightness and softness by Danila Marzilli and Madeline Squire.’
The Nutcracker, The Times, December 2024

‘All eyes are on Drosselmeyer…danced by Madeline Squire, she brings a proper sense of magic to the room with her nifty sleight-of-hand and magnetic presence.’
The Nutcracker, The Stage, December 2021

‘(Drosselmeyer) performed by Madeline Squire, she stole the show. Swirling a cloak to reveal flashes of its blue sparkly lining, she is the bringer of magic not only to the story but in her performance.’
The Nutcracker, Broadway Baby, December 2021
