    Hi Janet. I have sent you a DM. x

    Yes, I do understand that. But as I said, why show the tickets as available to the public when they are clearly NOT available to the public? Why not simply say '31 tickets available for access holders only' or whoever they have set them aside for? Then, once they are ready to be sold to the public and released, just remove the words 'for access holders only' so that it then reads as 31 tickets are available for anyone to buy?

    I have just had a look and you're right: there is no availability anywhere in the House. @LinMM you may be right, but quite frankly they shouldn't show tickets as being available until they actually ARE available...

    Hi Swan. Please may I have this ticket? Please DM me with your details. Thanks!

    Thank you Bridie for explaining our 'fatuous rationale' so clearly to those who don't understand.

    Yes...that's not news to me!

    Hello. If anyone finds themselves with a spare SCS/Balcony standing or cheapish seat for Monday's matinee (Will/Fumi) I will be delighted to divest you of it! Many thanks, Sim

    I notice that Lensky is listed as "Onegin's Friend." Is this always the case with this company?

    Janet, @Sebastian is selling one if you look in the Opera & Music thread!

    Bonjour Amelie et bienvenue au forum! Many thanks for your post. 😀

    Sounds a bit suspicious to me!

    Oh joy. Oh pure, unadulterated, beautiful joy. I refer to tonight’s Swan Lake.

    @JNC Laura was a wonderful Titania and I will be thinking of her in June.

    So much to be happy about with the casting: Hayward/Sambe should sizzle in The Dream. Naghdi/Richardson will be beautifully romantic in The Dream. Osipova/Bracewell...somewhere between the two! I am thrilled to see that Romany Pajdak is returning, albeit for one performance only. I do hope that this is a warm-up for gracing the stage once again next season, not a farewell.
  16. Sim
    Yep. Hope to see you there.
  17. Sim
    Ditto! See you there.

    As an 'older' person I totally disagree with this statement. Unaffordable housing? Have you ever asked an older person how easy it is for them to get a mortgage or rent a house/flat if they are over 60? Bizarre job market? Have you ever asked a person over 50 how easy it is for them to get a job when the 30 year-olds interviewing them think that anyone over 45 is a dribbling idiot? Post Covid recession? Have you ever asked an older person on a pension how easy it is to live during a recession? When they have no chance of finding work? There are many older people who would love to come to the ballet but have to choose between eating for a week or a night out. As far as I'm aware, there is no equivalent 'ROH young peoples' performances' for older people. Nor do they get any ticket concessions. So please don't think that it's only young people who suffer; everyone does if they are unlucky enough to be in such situations. Age has nothing to do with it.

    I think that the PR people and others at the ROH have shown time and time again that retaining regulars is at the bottom of their 'to do' list, if it's there at all. We don't seem to count for much.

    Can someone please explain to me what an 'influencer' actually is? I keep hearing about them but where do they come from and what do they do? Are they paid by companies to wear their clothes/perfume/shoes etc. and then tell their followers how fabulous such products are? Is it just advertising dressed up as another word?

    Hi Miles, and welcome to the forum. We are happy for this thread to go ahead, but for anybody posting please be reminded that we can only permit official videos to be uploaded onto the forum as it is a public area. Regretfully, we will have to remove anything that is not official or properly accredited. Thanks.

    Any comments on last night’s opening, please? I am skipping this so am interested to hear what attendees think of it and whether I am making a mistake…🤔

    I have been reliably informed that Cinderella has now been added to the ROH stream.
  24. Sim
    I would guess in the affirmative…

    O-dial?!
