Royal Ballet Principal dancer Steven McRae has another somewhat surprising passion that he loves equally as much as dance viz motor racing. He says they share elements of precision, danger and adrenaline.

So when Australian McRae talks about his love of ‘drag’ he actually means motor sports and not female impersonators. In this short video, directed by The Apiary (aka Australian duo Lily Coates and Gavin Youngs) he excels at the career he has chosen now and for which he has an exceptional talent, but that still doesn’t stop him dreaming of hurtling around the track.
