The Nancy Stevens Lifestyle Show 56 | International Women’s Day, The Red Shoes, Britain’s Got Talent

This week on the Nancy Stevens Lifestyle Show there’s theatre, books, television and a very proud mum moment. Nancy begins by reflecting on her International Women’s Day celebrations, where her Dress for Joy workshops brought together dozens of women for a day focused on confidence, colour and conversation. The events were a huge success and perfectly captured the spirit of the day. On the arts front, Nancy shares her thoughts on Matthew Bourne’s breathtaking ballet The Red Shoes, recently seen at Milton Keynes Theatre. With its cinematic staging, sumptuous costumes and emotionally powerful choreography, it’s a production that proves just how accessible and captivating ballet can be. The discussion also touches on the wider debate about the importance of opera and ballet in the modern arts world. The show then moves into an unforgettable family moment as Nancy talks about watching her son Benji appear on Britain’s Got Talent. Performing with dance group The Playground Boys, the troupe delivered a high-energy routine and earned four yeses from the judges. Nancy shares the emotional experience of seeing her son achieve a childhood dream on national television and reflects on the realities of building a career in the performing arts. Looking ahead, Nancy previews next week’s interview with author Kate Kemp and introduces her debut novel The Grapevine, discussing the inspiration behind the book and Kate’s journey into publishing. A lively episode filled with culture, creativity and a few proud parent moments along the way. #NancyStevens #LifestyleShow #BritainsGotTalent #TheRedShoes #MatthewBourne #TheatreTalk #Ballet #InternationalWomensDay #ArtsAndCulture #BookReview #KateKemp #RadioShow #Podcast
