Hi Bill
Do you still have the ticket for 23.1? If so, can I have it?
Kind regards

Thanks for your comments everyone. Yes I had heard about the humidity and that's partly the reason for asking for hotel recommendations.
Thanks also for the tip on emailing the box office direct with an order for tickets.

Has anyone attended the World Ballet Festival in Tokyo? I'd love to go one day and so it would be great to hear from anyone who has been for tips on the best places to stay, how to buy tickets securely, etc. Thanks, Allison

I have one free e-ticket to Zenaida's talk in the Clore Studio, ROH tonight, which starts at 7.15 pm. It is a side seat, to the left, 2nd row. The ticket is free of charge and can be emailed.
Kind regards

So just as Charlie and I had met, we were joined by Alex Beard, who I interviewed for the London Ballet Circle recently, who gave us a mini tour of the ROH redevelopment plans exhibition - well worth seeing in my opinion.
Then up to the Clore where Kim Brandstrup was rehearsing Deirdre Chapman and Bennet Gartside in Ceremony of Innocence. Although I've already seen it performed in Snape and Copenhagen, Kim used this opportunity to amend and fine tune this work.
Although there is no narrative as such, this scene was inspired by a memory from Benn's character's childhood when a day at the beach was marred by getting separated from his mother. Years later his mother still remembers being frantic with worry and it appears the experience scarred her for life, still worrying about him as a grown man.
Liam Scarlett's work Age of Anxiety is still in development. Based on the book, the first section that was rehearsed saw Matthew Ball and Natalie Harrison as the young couple very much in love in a late night bar. Liam's ability to articulate every facet of the characters helped his dancers find their unique interpretation. It was great fun to watch the development of that section.
The evening concluded with Liam rehearsing Tristan Dyer's solo which was a masterclass in the eloquence of the smallest of movements.
Many thanks once again Charlie for the opportunity to sit in on the rehearsal this evening.
Kind regards
Allison
