    This ticket has been returned to the box office.

    Thank you so much for the information. I didn't know that. In the email I received the other day it said no refunds due to train strikes.....I would be very happy with a credit, so thank you for letting me know.

    Due to there being NO trains from my area on Saturday 5th August, I am reluctantly selling my ticket for the matinee of Jewels. The seat is A18 in the stalls circle. The ticket cost £70 but I would accept £50 if anyone would like it.

    Devastated to hear this news. How tragic. He was so young and talented. I feel so sad for Liam & his family.

    What a wonderful performance from all the dancers at yesterday's Manon. It will long remain in my memory! Francesca was so beautiful & Alexander's partnering skills brilliant. I was sitting in the stalls circle, near the stage & Alexander seemed so distraught as Manon died. Corrales was a fantastic Lescaut. Those, jumps & turns & perfect landings! Magri was great too. Loved it, although I had a dreadful time getting to the Opera House. However, when the ballet started I was transported & forgot my stress.

    I am worried about this too!

    I recently sat in row B of the stalls circle for a performance of ' The Bright Stream ' It cost £27! And that was for the Bolshoi. Much more acceptable price. True, I was very close to the stage but I had a brilliant view. I feel that patrons sitting in what were the cheaper seats are subsidising the 'Open Up ' & I'm not impressed.

    Manon is my favourite ballet & I wanted to book for the Hayward/Campbell matinee, however, when I saw the prices for the stalls circle, where I like to sit, I was flabbergasted! How can they justify £67 to sit on a bench, with a restricted view? Those benches are incredibly uncomfortable & I only sit used to sit there because they were in my price range. So disappointed that, yet again, I have been priced out if the art form that I love. I have been going to the opera house since the late eighties but can barely afford to go now. I thought the opera house was non elitist.

    I stopped going to SW when they started allowing food & drink into the auditorium! I did write to them about it but got an unsatisfactory reply. Don't understand why people can't abstain from eating for, at most, a couple of hours!

    Fabulous photos, as usual, Don Q Fan

    I am a big fan of Biktimirov too, Bruce. Sorry I didn't get to see him this time round!

    To be honest I usually only go to matinees on a Saturday. It was unusual for me to go to ballet on a weekday evening but I had bought the ticket at the last minute from a forum member. I'm so glad I was able to see the Bright Stream. I absolutely loved it, getting home a different story! I agree LinMM earlier starts & midweek matinees would be good & accurate timings on cast sheets too! I do hope you sleep better tonight.
