Gillian Lynne
Dame Gillian Barbara Lynne, DBE (née Pyrke; born 20 February 1926) is a British ballerina, dancer, choreographer, actress, and theatre/television director, noted for her popular theatre choreography associated with the musical ''Cats'' and the current longest running show in Broadway history, ''The Phantom of the Opera''. At age 87, she was made a DBE (Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire) in the 2014 New Year Honours List.
==Early life and education==
Gillian Barbara Pyrke was born in Bromley, Kent, and was a precocious dance talent from an early age, teaming with her childhood friend Beryl Grey while still at school, and dancing to blot out the tragedy of the violent death (in a car crash along with Edward Turner's first wife) of her mother on 8 July 1939 in Coventry, when Lynne was just 13 years old.〔Recounted by Dame Beryl Grey in ''The Independent'', 10 March 2002; accessed 22 March 2014.〕〔Moorhead, Joanna. ("'Mummy's still looking after me'" ) ''The Guardian'', 25 November 2011; accessed 17 March 2014.〕
Lynne's gift for dancing was discovered by a doctor. She had been underperforming at school, so her mother took her to the doctor and explained about her fidgeting and lack of focus. After hearing everything her mother said, the doctor told Lynne that he needed to talk to her mother privately for a moment. He turned on the radio and walked out. He then encouraged her mother to look at Lynne, who was dancing to the radio. The doctor noted that she was a dancer, and encouraged Lynne's mother to take her to dance school.〔Recounted by Sir Ken Robinson in his TED talk, (Do schools kill creativity? ) (starting at 14:50 minutes)〕
