I do find this chat around the ages of the ladies in Mayerling fascinating. As I think I have posted before, here are the ages of some of the dancers as of the first performance (14 February 1978): David Wall (Crown Prince Rudolf) - 31 Lynn Seymour (Mary Vetsera) - 38 Merle Park (Countess Mary Larisch) - 41 Georgina Parkinson (Empress Elizabeth) - 39 Michael Somes (Emperor Franz Josef) - 60 Wendy Ellis (Princess Stéphanie) - 26 David Drew (Bay Middleton) - 39

She was one half of the ROH's "in conversation" with Lauren Cuthbertson last year. I assumed she had been chosen for that by Ms Cuthbertson.

Dancer parents: Things to do (Central London)
bangorballetboy replied to Laura_ballet's topic in Doing Dance
Just to add some colour on the Mithraeum (as I find this kind of thing fascinating and I remember seeing it many times when I moved to London). It was originally discovered in 1954 during excavation work for the construction of Bucklersbury House. It was rebuilt about 100 yards down the road and was open to the elements and visible from the pavement. Following demolition of that (awful) building, the temple has now been returned to its original location, which is now inside the bottom of the new Bloomberg building. And in a similar vein, there is also the Roman Amphitheatre under the Guildhall, accessed through the (free to enter) Guildhall Art Gallery. When walking through Guildhall Yard, you can see the footprint of the amphitheatre set out in the stones in the tard. -

I haven't really changed my purchasing plans, other than reflecting that I now have other demands on my time and sometimes when I'm going on my own (which is about 25% of the time), I'll usually booking a standing place so I don't feel quite as bad if I end up with a clash and have to get rid of the ticket (also more likely that it will go to someone on here!). For the current booking period, so far as ballet/dance is concerned, I have booked: Don Q - 10 + the rehearsal Anemoi/The Cellist - 3 (not a great fan of The Cellist but I'll give it another go) Dante Project - 5 Nutcracker - 11 Northern - 1 Ballet Black - 1 The Limit - 1
