    I believe Federico Bonelli danced Palemon about 10 years ago, although I did not see him in this role.

    An interesting feature on foley artists (who are often dancers apparently), including interview with Barnaby Smyth who created the sounds of dancers for the forthcoming film The White Crow. Now on BBC Sounds. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0002r3x

    For the first performance of the mixed bill which included Winter Dreams the cast changes were displayed on a (small) notice at programme desks. Since then ROH has switched to displaying larger A4 size cast change notices, as far as I am aware. Besides notices and screen information onsite, I think it is respectful to both artists and audience for significant cast changes to be announced in the auditorium pre-performance. This has happened on a couple of occasions that I'm aware of recently, so I hope that ROH will continue to do this, even though the practice seemed to stop during the period before Christmas. I did not see Daniel Camargo's performances, but presume that no cast change slip or auditorium announcement was needed because this was not deemed to be a last minute cast change. Perhaps it would be courteous for the cast sheet itself to state if a dancer is a guest artist and to give the name of his/her home company. As I was not there, I don't know what information (if any) the cast sheet gave for Daniel Camargo. In the case of live screenings a full cast list usually appears online, e.g. Don Quixote on 19 February: https://www.roh.org.uk/events/9cflh Perhaps it would be helpful if the cast sheet document distributed to cinemas for live screenings could include the relevant webpage link for full cast information. I wish the ROH website would give similarly expansive cast information for all RB performances!

    No - the website really did give William Walton as Creature for the first date, before this changed to Wei Wang. I wish I'd taken a screen shot! 😊
  12. Josephine
    Apologies, Wei Wang is shown for performances on 5 and 11 March only.
  13. Josephine
    The Creature for the the first night of Frankenstein is now given as William Walton. Is this correct?? https://www.roh.org.uk/events/wk2dc In the few minutes since posting the above information the web site has changed to show the Creature as Wei Wang for all first cast performances I think. A name new to me.

    A 1960s production photo featuring Christopher Gable and Lynn Seymour (I think) appears to show three pigeons! This is a cropped detail, as the full image was too large to upload here. I have been unable to confirm the photographer's name. Moderators: please remove image if my posting it here contravenes AUP. Thank you.

    Thank you. I have replied.

    In terms of dramatic momentum and vivid emotional clarity I am ever grateful to Thiago Soares and Roberta Marquez for a treasured memory of their performance together in Giselle, from maybe 10 years ago.

    Even if Summer season casting cannot yet be fully publicised I think that by now ROH should have been able to release some more information about the potential programme content of the Fonteyn Gala celebration. This omission indicates that perhaps the event has been planned a little belatedly, as discussed in another thread I think.
