    I think his name for the Fumi performance was removed after his appointment to Northern Ballet so could be that is why.

    I too felt a bit underwhelmed tonight, maybe waiting a couple of years had built my expectation unfairly high. Her White swan was utterly beautiful particularly her response to Siegfried’s pleading in Act 4 was very powerful. It was the Black swan pdd which usually gets me pretty fired up but tonight left me flat, her fouettés just didn’t happen for me. Having said all that it was very well received, the swans are totally wonderful, William partnered her beautifully, and all the various dance routines were really good. Would not have missed this for the world.

    Is it definitely Frankie’s debut in the Odette/Odile role on Wednesday? What about William, is it his too?

    Rather fed up.Failed to get tickets. Screen froze TWICE when it said it was authorising my payments. I actually went to bed during the second attempt and it was still doing it when I got up. Let’s hope they do stream it; more money for those needy people of the Ukraine.

    Well I got my free programme for a R&J performance weeks ago. Someone has got this wrong

    I’ve already cashed mine in at a performance of R&J. An offer like this must be taken in case they change their minds. Two years Friends+ subscriptions with no performances and we get one free programme. Heaven.

    I saw him more at ENB where he did the pirate/matador style roles and more recently the Akram Giselle when again he was not the Lead. I found his Romeo with Frankie a tad lacking in real emotion, compared to her with Bracewell. Mayara’s recent R&J with Calvin will take some beating as well. All these brilliant new principals at the RB is so wonderful, we are so spoilt for choice.

    Bridiem is right, they have been rehearsing for weeks and tomorrow is a continuation of those. With a play they have numerous previews but there is always a “first night” which is recognised as such.

    I have always seen Mr Corrales as a more Corsair type pirate or a Quixote matador than a "white tight" romantic lead, but we shall see.

    I like the sound of that. Having been blown away by her Juliet I have great hopes for her Odette/Odile.

    Just read a review on Instagram that Alexander was a late replacement for Frankie and Cesar. No reason was given for their no show, hope they are O.K.

    Just seen Instagram posting from Alexander Campbell showing him in Brisbane dancing the White Swan PDD. I thought Frankie and Cesar where going to dance this. Hope Frankie is O.K.

    Having started this topic back in October, it seems the whole delay is my fault. Here is the first sentence of the email I received today from the ROH, this is a direct copy and paste:- "In October we contacted you to let you know that we had postponed our stream of The Dante Project because you had pre-ordered it." Please accept my apologies for pre-ordering it, I should have waited. There is no excuse.

    Just received email saying the stream of the Dante Project has been cancelled until December due to a "scheduling change" I was looking forward to tomorrow when it was supposed to be available.

    I have just sent her a present, to the ROH, of a green beanie. Couldn't resist.
  19. SPD444
    I am a huge fan of her Instagram page, she is completely daft ( in a lovely way ) and will miss her "green beanie" very much. God Bless Beau, stay safe and be happy.

    I read somewhere that it is Marcelino with Frankie.
  21. SPD444
    Yes, it is. I have no details, just saw the announcement.
  22. SPD444
    Now Friday and I received the confirmation email today with a subsequent email giving apology. All is well.
  23. SPD444
    Yes, I did. I have checked what tickets I bought in the “Events” section of my membership file if they are their and they are so all seems well but to make sure I copied the error message to the box office and asked them to confirm. No reply so far.
  24. SPD444
    They would be very silly if the can do that and they don't

    Will we have to wait until September for it to be back to normal. I have been chasing my tail looking at the ticket situation regarding the Royal Ballet School performances and whilst we are currently in social distancing in theatres surely come June 21st all that will go away so theatre's can sell all seats. The matinee performance is on the 10th July so why can't they sell all the seats after June 21st.
