Royal Ballet - Swan Lake 2024
MargaretN7 replied to Linnzi5's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
Dancersdiary, at one time a dancer in the company, is an official photographer for the Royal Ballet and is often in the stalls circle standing area taking performance photos. He always explains to whoever he is standing by, is quiet and unobtrusive, and I've never found him distracting. His photographs are much appreciated. -
Swan Lake - 9 year old first ballet?
MargaretN7 replied to Beaker's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
I have 3 grandchildren, with available choice being BRB's offerings at their local theatre. For the eldest, it was any dance with classical type music. The middle one, untouched by any of the standard fare, but a visit to ROH and a Wayne McGregor triple, yes! The youngest, dance and drama and music, and at age 6 totally immersed in, gripped by, Romeo and Juliet, reenacted next day with her dolls. And, at a subsequent Fille mal Gardee, captivated by Alain and the love of his life, his red umbrella. They are all different, ready for different things at different ages. You have to know the child, and even then they can still surprise you. -
I had a ticket to attend the event. I have assumed that the event now having been cancelled that your streaming test will be cancelled, unless ROH is replacing it with something else for your test

An email and ticket refunded, yes

Except that this event has now been cancelled

The cameras are there for the Magri-Corales performances, so extra prices for camera restriction seats

Yes, I called box office too, while continuing to book tickets for non Don Q performances. She began booking for me, but then had message and told me Don Q had been taken off sale while problem sorted

Is Untitled, 2023 shrinking? I wasn't at Thursday's performance, but when I looked at the cast list there were only 18 listed, no Anna Rose who'd danced with Melissa on the first night, and no Ashley Dean who replaced her. Now, for the Saturday evening performance, it's 17, there's no Melissa either

Royal Ballet Cinderella March/April 2023
MargaretN7 replied to Sim's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
The first time I saw Cinderella, 29th December, 1958, Fonteyn and Somes, the step sisters were Moyra Fraser and Margaret Hill. If assume Ashton was involved with that, then he was casting women early on.- 1,333 replies

Pam Tanowitz Mixed Bill - Royal Ballet
MargaretN7 replied to LACAD's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
Dispatch Duet was a specially made film, not a straight recording of the main stage performance. I thought it worked rather well.- 7 replies

21/22 Cinema/stream season
MargaretN7 replied to jmhopton's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
I took it that the cinema and streaming ones so far announced are for the period one section of the season, other periods to follow later. At least that is what I have assumed, I hope correctly.- 71 replies

The National Theatre has sent an email to its Friends about this. This is a premiere which has been specially filmed during lockdown, with the assistance of Sky Arts. I assume that's why it is getting these three showings
