Gillian Lynne.
The choreographer of Cats and The Phantom of the Opera.
As a child, she was basically a horrid student. And was told she was sick. (Now,she'd probably be told she had ADHD) She wasn't able to sit still in class, she constantly handed her homework in late, she was distracting other children.
When brought to the doctor spoke to her, and played the radio. He left the room. And told Gillian's mother to watch. She's a dancer., he said.
If only it were that easy.
