Young people and potential freedom of movement deal
Colman replied to Kerfuffle's topic in Doing Dance
Both Labour and the Tories have repudiated the offer, for reasons I can’t begin to describe (nor would I be allowed to here) never mind understand. On the other hand, my Irish son’s colleagues going the professional route via U.K. colleges this year will have the best of both worlds, putting U.K. competitors at a disadvantage. Isn’t that nice? -
Audience Behaviour - Thread 2
alison replied to BalletcoForum Moderators's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
Quite. I wouldn't want any additional lighting effects on the sunrise from Daphnis and Chloe, for instance, just because someone else deemed it an "appropriate" moment 😀 -
Yes. Naughty Peregrine was there in all his glory last time BRB brought Fille down. After the performance I was walking past the stage door and there he was, with his trainer, just about to be loaded onto the horse truck. I stopped to stroke him (the pony, not the trainer!) and I asked if he enjoyed doing the shows. The trainer replied that he absolutely loves it, and loves all the attention. I do hope he is still with us (the pony....and the trainer!).

"appropriate moments". That leaves a lot of leeway for interpretation, doesn't it? What happens when there's a difference in interpretation? -
Congratulations- my DD did couple past years in seniors, but not able to do this year. She had great time - hope your DD will enjoy too.

"Singer halts Symphony Hall concert and says 'this is distracting' as he attacks new rules" https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/whats-on/music-nightlife-news/singer-halts-symphony-hall-concert-29017426 As I read this, the Birmingham Symphony Orchestra is OK with phone use for "photographs and short video clips at our concerts," and is "supportive of audiences being able to use their phones at appropriate moments during our concerts." Has BRB said anything on the matter?

YAGP 25th Anniversary Season Final Round at Lincoln Center April 2024
Kerfuffle replied to Roberta's topic in Doing Dance
I think this has happened to Russian opera singers in USA too.Singers are often freelance. Ballet is used as soft power by Russia and has been strongly associated with politics, eg the use of Swan Lake in the USSR times. Khoreva is a huge Instagram star with a massive following amongst young dancers but she is state funded too. Having her fly in and perform gives the impression that there is no war going on. Considering the precarious situation of the Ukraine war I am not surprised if the theatre have cancelled.
