When I left the amphitheatre there was a lot of glass near the doors, including on the floor - small tumblers etc, so with or without anyone smashing glass, that alone was serious a trip hazard.

From what I heard in the amphitheatre + then saw outside on the pavement, only makes me think that ROH need to further prepare on how to handle this situation in the future, especially with the ongoing decline in audience behaviour, for many reasons, to protect the staff, public + the artists.

Yes, after the unnerving + unpredictable commotion during Different Drummer, came out Piazza exit + walked around to Bow Street + saw approximately 6 Met police officers restraining someone on the pavement outside the main entrance with other patrons looking on. The person was resisting + making the same loud noises as could be heard in the amphitheatre, at that point I decided to go home, but hoped they were able to deescalate the situation as it looked pretty volatile.

Have sent you DM

Me too

Yes please - have PM’d

Thank you, yes you're right I'm thinking of V!

Really wanted to see Forsythe's Blake Works II, will that be part of the programme? Really enjoyed ENB in Blake Works I + know the second installation was premiered last year in Milan + Berlin?

PM'd you

It was on Instagram on Tuesday I think, yes it's now expired, but sure they will keep re-posting other stories.

I was an usher for the Christmas period at ROH a decade ago + remember we used to have to push the marketing when ticket sales were very low at the Linbury via then Twitter etc. However at the theatre I now usher at, we stopped using TodayTix last year because of big issues with them publishing the wrong start time (!) + also selling duplicate seats. I can see + have seen how ROH are trying to reach out to new audiences, especially to those who are tech savvy to fill the empty seats + make bigger profits, I'm not for or against third party sellers, so will be interesting to see how it pans out for ROH. However, one thing I did notice recently that really shocked me was how ROH is now re-posting/sharing stories on their official Instagram from the public, not from influencers or anyone in the public eye in particular, but those who've tagged ROH in their story. The story I saw the other night, showcased an 'evening out to The Nutcracker' with a really explicit backing track. I first watched it with the sound off + then turned it on + I didn't really know what to think at that point! I'm all for new music + new audiences enjoying ROH for the first time, but I definitely felt this was a low blow + wasn't sure if the person handling ROH social media had listened to the track before they pressed share!
