    I'm looking for one ticket for a friend for this performance - she'll consider anything that's not too expensive! Thanks Jacky

    And in Cambridge Picturehouse ..... plus the sound kept cutting out for a couple of seconds at various times

    Sorry - this is the first time I've tried to quote, and I seem to have messed it up! But I just wanted to say that I agree with Indigo and DaveM - some parts were hard to watch, and the middle act did seem to go on a bit with the harlots. I didn't get the sense that Manon herself was manipulative at all last night - she was just being used. However, the quality of the dancing, particularly Alexander Campbell, was stunning. Maybe it's time for a bit of a re-think for the ballet, both the staging and how it is presented - though obviously we can't judge it from the moral perspective of today. I also agree with DaveM that being thrown around in a swamp is probably not the best approach if you're on your last legs! Jacky

    Fingers crossed for that, Ruth ........

    I agree, Sim - and that's in the play. Many of the reservations above are Shakespeare's fault!

    So no Onegin. Oh well ... And I was hoping for Theme and Variations, but maybe there's a reason they don't/can't do it ...?? Jacky

    Due to a sudden heavy cold, I'm reluctantly selling my SCS for tomorrow March 13th. It's D11 £10. Pm me if you're interested - it's an ticket, so I can email it. I'll return it to the ROH tomorrow if no-one wants it. Thanks Jacky

    Yes, could be overactive imagination. I like the Russian version where there are only twinkling lights that scare him away - that seems a better way of ‘anticipating’ their arrival. Sorry - a bit away from the flowers ....which is such an interesting topic

    I’ve often wondered how there can be Wilis scaring Hilarion at the grave at the start of the act when they haven’t been raised by Myrtha yet ......

    I totally agree, Fiz - and with all the comments above. The moderators do a great job, which is greatly appreciated. Jacky

    This is a very early request for two SCS tickets (ideally together) for any of the Morera performances of the RB Bernstein mixed bill. March 15, 23, 27 or April 6th. I realise this is very early, but am hopeful of getting two tickets together this way. Many thanks Jacky

    Onegin!!!!! Serenade Theme and Variations (not sure when this was last done) Woolf Works

    Jason Reilly IS Onegin for me. I remember the performance in London with Alina, and it was electric.

    That's great news!

    Very sad indeed - such a lovely voice and such stage personality. He'll be missed!
  23. J_New
    Thanks, Sim - as you say, fingers crossed!
  24. J_New
    I thought that was the case, but was hoping someone might know whether Bennet will be doing it for any performances. Oh well .......
  25. J_New
    Thanks Sim - that works, and is very interesting. On a different note - does anyone know whether it's possible to find out the casting for Hilarion in the up-coming run of Giselle? Jacky
