John Mallinson Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 (edited) I don't think we have a similar thread to this which I hope will be useful for alerting people to what web relays are coming up, where and when. N.B. I have changed the title of this thread to point out that it is for notices of Insight Events and where to find the links for web streaming before (and after) the events. Wider discussion of Insights should be in Royal Ballet Insights and Rehearsals discussion. Edited September 29, 2018 by John Mallinson For clarification. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mallinson Posted September 25, 2018 Author Share Posted September 25, 2018 First off. Mayerling insight with Ryoichi Hirano and Melissa Hamilton. (Also, I think, a first look at the revamped Clore Studio.) Today, Sept 25, at 19.30 BST on the ROH YouTube channel. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 (edited) Thanks John - I was just about to ask about tonight's Mayerling. Hopefully Thursday's Unknown Soldier will also be broadcast.

The streaming of the Mayerling insight doesn't seem to be announced on the ROH website or Facebook and was only posted on Twitter at 11am. Thursday's insight is labelled as 'filming' so maybe it will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alison Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Good idea to start a dedicated thread, John. I know we've had some hit-and-miss individual postings previously - I may search them out and move them to here when I've nothing better to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthE Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 I'm looking forward to attending this evening in person and investigating the new seating in the Clore! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odyssey Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Really pleased there is a thread for this as I came across the Mayerling live rehearsal purely by accident. I do think they could market these occasions a little more successfully. . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthE Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Nice new seats in the Clore! Fully of the tip-up-seat-with-optional-plastic-arm-rests variety, with adequate legroom for most. As for Melissa Hamilton and Ryoichi Hirano’s Mayerling scenes, I suppose I’m glad it felt like watching a performance, because I can’t get to either of this cast’s actual shows 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 9 hours ago, JohnS said: there seemed to be a number of empty seats ...yet it has been showing as "Sold Out" for months. Not for the first time, I can't help wondering exactly how ROH go about allocating seats for Insights. It rather looks as if a certain number are held back for some department or organisation which can't bothered, not only to use their allocation but even to pass the news back that the tickets won't be needed. Or maybe someone in the Insight department is being lazy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blossom Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Speaking of empty seats, there are a few tickets which have come up this am for Marianela Nunez on 13 Dec 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mallinson Posted September 27, 2018 Author Share Posted September 27, 2018 Any news of streaming of tonight's Unknown Soldier insight? I can't find anything. Tickets still available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard LH Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Just wondering exactly the same thing, John! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I think the Mayerling Twitter notification was early evening, an hour or so before the broadcast, although John had placed a YouTube link late morning. I can't understand why the ROH communications team is hiding so much light under what must be a fast growing bushel. Still no 'News' article about the Mayerling Insight. I have asked but not yet had a response. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangorballetboy Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 3 hours ago, Richard LH said: Yes we filled ours in. Again there were quite a few empty seats.....many more than the 8 that were being advertised just before the event. The empty seats behind the camera are empty because the view from there is blocked by the camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alison Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Yes, Lin, we need to do some surgery and move the feedback away from the information. I for one didn't expect there to be so much of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mallinson Posted September 29, 2018 Author Share Posted September 29, 2018 Yes, maybe starting this thread was a bad idea (on my part!). I envisaged it being for announcements rather than discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Thanks John - it looks as if the next Insight is La Bayadere on 24 October which says it's being filmed. Perhaps start a new thread for that? The Mayerling student Insight a couple of days later doesn't look as if it's being filmed which is a shame as it's only available for ROH students - I didn't see any references to any dancing and by then of course the Mayerling run is nearing its end.

Now done here: It's a little messy, because some postings could have fitted in either thread, but I hope it largely makes sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard LH Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 As The Royal Ballet prepare for the return of Natalia Makarova's La Bayadère, the Company will livestream rehearsals on 24 October 2018 from 7.30pm BST. The Insight stream will feature Principals Yasmine Naghdi and Akane Takada being coached by Makarova, as well as interviews. Watch the livestream via this page, or via the Royal Opera House YouTube channel. Very excited to be going to see Akane and Yasmine with Natalia Makarova tomorrow, and good to know it is also being broadcast live. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, at least we’ll be able to find it afterwards, given that it’s being streamed via Youtube as opposed to Facebook Live. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alison Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Wonderful. "Your browser does not currently recognise any of the video formats available." Why on earth not? I don't usually have problems watching YouTube. I left work earlier specifically to be able to watch this live for once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
