Juliet Prowse choreographed her remarkable success

From her early days as a young artist in 1950s London to her rise as a captivating performer in Hollywood and beyond, her story is one of relentless determination, artistic genius, and a fierce craving for independence.

In the book, her niece, Juliet Prowse (namesake author), unveils the intricacies of her aunt's life, a journey that orchestrated the ambitions of an aspiring dancer into a luminary admired by audiences worldwide.

Born in South Africa, the dancer’s path to stardom was paved with resilience and determination from a young age.

The book opens with her formative years, showcasing the early lessons of hard work that shaped her into the performer she would later become.

With the backdrop of 1950s London, her niece recounts the fortuitous meeting between her aunt and Hermes Pan, Fred Astaire’s choreographer, which marked the beginning of an illustrious journey in dance.
