Oh yes - incredibly excited for that too! Des Grieux is a role that would seem to be absolutely made for him.- 612 replies

Royal Ballet Casting for Autumn 2023-24

I agree Bracewell is such a musical, lyrical, soulful dancer who seems to dance from his heart and, as such, really tugs at the heartstrings. However, having seen his cheeky, boy-next-door portrayal of Franz in Coppelia with Akane, I have no doubt he will also win hearts as Basilio. I can’t wait!- 612 replies

ElleC replied to Bluebird's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
Two questions, Jenny: 1. Are the sets and costumes beautiful (no need for detail - just overall impression)? 2. Which cast did you see? If you don’t feel you should answer - no problem! 😊- 540 replies

The jester has a relatively large role in the ballroom scene as well as appearing in the trying on of the glass slipper. And me too with regard to Laura and the fairy godmother. I can never get enough of her dancing …- 540 replies

I agree - would have loved James Hay to be Akane’s prince. I do hope he’s also dancing one of the fairy cavaliers as well as a stepsister. I also remember him being a wonderful jester last time around.- 540 replies

The Sleeping Beauty, Royal Ballet 2023
ElleC replied to MJW's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
In addition to all the wonderful partnerships being cultivated with William (and I too love them all especially Kaneko/Bracewell), I do hope room can sometimes be found for Akane on his long list. They were outstandingly beautiful together in Swan Lake and also heart-warming in Coppelia. I would love to see them together again at some point. -

I think it might be the pdd from Coppelia (seem to remember seeing that somewhere but not 100% certain). -

Like Water for Chocolate Casting: RB Summer 2022
ElleC replied to capybara's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
Does anyone have any inkling whether the third cast (ie Takada and Campbell) will actually be dancing this, given that I think both may have been injured fairly recently? I have a ticket for this cast and am really hoping all is well but also rather wary since there has been no further reference to them since the casting was announced. -
Yes please - sign me up for every performance of that triple bill!😀
