  1. I thought there was definite momentum - not slow at all. Unlike some other occasions (nor RB) I recall.
  2. On Monday it was very clear that Odette was turning to face Rothbart and his malevolent influence was obvious.
  3. I was not clear in my post. I meant that it Is not frequently performed. I haven’t seen the RB production only the BRB Bintley production. Was the Cranko production the original?
  4. It seems a shame that a major ballet score isn’t used.
  5. That would break my heart. I may boycott in protest were that to happen!
  6. I wonder too if dancers are worried that they will be prevented from travel
  7. Thanks Floss I would very much like to see the Ratmansky swan lake and sleeping beauty.
  8. Well you never know if you will be surprised. That’s the thrill of the live performance. I am always hopeful so go anyway. I think I must have seen more swan lake performances than any other ballet but I can always find time for another one - same with Bayadere.
  9. I am not v tall and I do like the loose seats in the Balcony- can’t always book them though.
  10. Did anyone else who saw Osipova’s earlier performances think that odette’s agony and sorrow were even greater today?

    Dog news

    I had already picked the poodle as a potential winner. V happy to see flatcoat win and liver is a less popular colour. border collie was a lovely dog - great movement. v disappointed with the rough collie best of breed winner- not my type at all. Did think the smooth collie was v smart though.
  12. Would love to see Cinderella and the Dream again
  13. Thank you Bruce really interesting reading, especially the Forum posts. The posts seem very forthright - today’s style seems quite different!
  14. But discussion about the intention that can be implied from the music is worth it I think. I find it interesting anyway
  15. Terrific photos Rob thank you. I hope Ms Osipova recovers soon, what a professional she is. How was Mr Clarke’s performance?
