  1. If someone can use this, I’m happy to give it free of charge
  2. I can’t go sadly My e ticket says Stalls Circle / Door 1D / Row D Standing 53 / £ 14.00 STANDING/Restricted View
  3. Well it’s all very odd. The cafe on the ground floor was closed. Only ticket holders admitted. The bar and restaurant quite empty. Massive security at the door. Police dogs outside….Taylor Swift?
  4. I’m in the Paul Hamlin hall right now and it is empty….. huge security getting in. What is going on?
  5. I enjoyed Anemoi this evening, though I was unfamiliar with the music. I’d kind of like to see it again. Abstract ballet can be beautiful and this was, in parts. And I really liked the staging. the Cellist was powerful! Marcellino Sambé is wonderful and I thought that Lauren Cuthbertson danced beautifully, made a great trio with Matthew Ball. Big lump in the throat by the end. I would definitely like to see more work by Cathy Marston; it is so interesting to see a (to me) new choreographer’s work and she has a definite style. Ages since I’ve been to the ballet. Should go more…. Best thing in the world
  6. Does the audience eat and drink while the dancers are on? Or are there intervals for eating? And, is the music live or recorded? It could be lovely but I wonder if it could be a bit of a cabaret
  7. Some neighbours mentioned this recently I hadn’t heard of it. https://www.hatch-house.co.uk/covent-garden-dance-company Does anyone here know about it, or has been? It looks rather pricey but perhaps no more than stalls plus dinner at ROH. It could be a treat. Or … not?? Looks a bit cabaret and I am not sure I like the idea of eating and drinking while the dancers are on. Would be very interested to hear any opinions
  8. My mistake. Wrong cast. I’m returning the ticket to the box office
  9. We were at ROH last night 12th April. It was almost completely the same cast as for the Gala opening night but to me it seemed much more enjoyable. Everything was tighter, smoother and the orchestra was wonderful. Perhaps because I was in the stalls this time as opposed to amphitheatre but I think the production has settled down and I felt that MN had really developed the role. Dancing was superb of course! I loved it. I’m going again. One of my best evenings at the ballet. Thank you RB
