Mel C's dancing challenge

Available for over a year

For most of us, Melanie C’s name is synonymous with The Spice Girls and Girl Power, but now she’s taking female empowerment to a new level and challenging herself by dancing the lead role in a new production at Sadler's Wells in London. Mel says “vulnerability is a superpower, I think this is going to be very rewarding, and intense and petrifying… I’ve had to be accepting of where my body is and I’ve had to train again’ For 5 Minutes On, the BBC's Media and Arts reporter, Sophie van Brugen meets Melanie C to talk about breaking down the boundaries between performing and age.
