    Liam Scarlett shares some thoughts on his new production in the San Francisco section of World Ballet Day. It's at approximately 3 hours in. Sorry I cannot provide the link.

    I shall be there this afternoon and I am really looking forward to seeing BRB. Like you Nottsballetlover, I more regularly travel to London for my ballet fix.

    I was very shocked when I heard about the booing of Roberta Marquez, she was wonderful when I saw her this week in her scheduled performance. I cheered extra loud!

    Alexander Campbell is now listed as the mad Hatter for tomorrow night.

    I just assumed that it may have been an injury that affects lifting, as the Mad Hatter doesn't do any partnering, rather than one which affects the legs or feet.I'm sure one of the articles about the RB trip to Brazil mentioned an injury to McRae.

    I tried to post these changes at lunchtime but it all went a bit pear-shaped! I agree it's very confusing, I'm surprised that McRae is still listed as the Mad hatter though, I suppose it depends on the injury.

    sorry, meant to say they are replaced by Choe and Campbell on the 12th Feb.

    just noticed this, browsing the ROH site, Cojocaru and McRae are no longer listed as dancing voices of spring pdd on the opening night of the mixed bill. They are still listed for 21st.

    I couldn't agree more with your comments,Anjuli.

    What an interesting topic, and one i was thinking about the other night as i was watching Youtube. I think my answer would be ,it depends on what they are dancing.I have always thought that the royal ballet give their best performances in dramatic works and that,s why i like them.I accept that the technical standard of dancing may not be as high as other leading companies but their characterisation is better.

    I found them by accident by clicking on the news link on the roh site which brings up your reaction to swan lake in cinemas, click on that and they are on that page. ENJOY!

    I saw this production in Nottingham yesterday. I really enjoyed the show, I always find northern ballet's productions a feast for the eyes, the costumes, sets and ligthing were superb. I saw Javier Torres/Ayana Kanda cast and I agree with Janet that they made an exellant pairing. I was sat next to some very proud relations of the three year old little girl playing Butterfly's son.

    yes, they do tend to be out of the town centre but most have free parking so are great if like me you live in the country with no evening bus service.

    Have just checked times and dates of the RB encore performances, they are. swan lake-28th Oct 1.00pm nutcracker 16th Dec 1.00pm. These are showing at the showcase cinema in nottingham.
  16. greypuss
    showcase cinemas charge £12.50 for ballet shows, at least for the royal ballet they do. Bye the way whilst booking some tickets today I noticed they are doing some encore performances of the RB live shows at the weekends I think, can`t remember the dates , this is certainly more family friendly than the mid week shows.

    I haven`t had mine yet either.
  18. greypuss
    That's interesting!
  19. greypuss
    Good Luck to everyone involved, I shall be watching on Saturday afternoon.

    Thanks for posting this ,I just caught the end of this as I switched over!
  21. greypuss
    Congrats to all concerned. Pretty much as I expected really. I agree about the omissions. I would like to add that perhaps the RB like the Northern ballet are cutting back some of the bigger salaries at the top to give some more opportunites lower down the ranks.

    I,m glad you and your friend enjoyed fille, re steven`s showing off I do agree a little. I tend to think he sometimes gets caught up in the music and the moment.On wednesday night I felt he went into hyper drive ,feeding off the adrenelin no doubt ! I agree he will settle down but there seems to be so little opportunity to show what he can really do he seizes the moment.I thought steven gave a very mature performance of romeo earlier this year perfectly in character so I know he can do it.

    Just returned from the live relay in nottingham,in a word it was FAB-BU-LOUS!!!! Thought Steven and Roberta even better tonight, the whole cast seemed to be having a ball!

    thanks Alison,I've been meaning to post for ages.I came home on such a high last night -sorry this morning I mean, I'm still a little groggy! Hope I can put some clearer thoughts together tomorrw. But for now, just wanted to say I liked McRae's hair too.

    Hi,this is my first post, thought I would delurk and say how much I enjoyed fille last night. This is the second cast i,ve seen in this run , the other was Acosta and Nunez,(mum's choice of cast not mine). I shall be watching the live relay from nottingham on wednesday with some friends, I hope it's as good then.
