Lucien Postlewaite: Lessons from a Lifetime of Dance

After nearly two decades at Pacific Northwest Ballet—where he was one of the company’s longest-running principal dancers and an audience favorite—Lucien Postlewaite is stepping into retirement at the end of the season. In this episode of the Seattle podcast, Seattle magazine editor-in-chief Rachel Gallaher sits down with Postlewaite as he candidly reflects on his storied career (he’s performed every major role in the ballet canon) and shares how dance has shaped him on all levels and prepared him for his next big role as a personal excellence coach.
