Thinking about Rudolfs in waiting I am beginning to think that this role is like Giselle for the girls. You can't rush it but you can't leave it too late either. It requires the dancer to have hit that magic moment when physical stamina and technique are still there but emotional maturity and experience have begun to kick in. At the Edward Watson Insight Eve, Ed talked about this mismatch that dancers have to deal with throughout their careers and that the moment when these to different things intersect is pretty fleeting... On a side note, so frustrating to me that both Osipova and Hayward have arrived late in Ed's career as they are both so good with him in this and Manon(proven in Hayward's case from the last run).

Yes I think they would obviously have had to film it twice in the usual way - partly because of all those dress hazards and yes Osi did slip...

Yes Bruce I was indeed exaggerating - of course we have just had the marvellous SB but its narrative is hardly very intricate and doesn't give that much scope to the great dance actors in the company although it does of course demand the finest dancing. I suppose my mind was wandering back a bit to what has felt like a slew of beautifully danced, very contemporary but slight one acts that don't engage the average non balletomane in quite the same way as Mayerling. I just felt that the audience was genuinely excited and that has to be a good thing.

Finding myself feeling really sad and bereft after this last performance of Eds. I can't quite believe that this cast wasn't filmed - seems quite ridiculous to me especially now that live screens are such a great way to bring in a new audience and Mayerling is surely the jewel in the crown? The atmos in the Theatre has been electric and I get a real sense that the audience is loving a proper narrative ballet to get their teeeth into after months and months of plotless triples...Mayerling is so beautifully constructed and so satisfying choreo graphically and theatrically - I think the ROH missed a trick in not broadcasting this.

Royal Ballet Autumn 2017 Casting
balletyas replied to Bluebird's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
Yes of course and I would hope that Hayward will get both Manon as she did so brilliantly in before and I think she could do Giselle. Not so sure about Nagdhi for Manon - although Ball would be perfect for DG. She was rather wonderful as Juliet and I wonder when that will be back...- 113 replies

Royal Ballet Autumn 2017 Casting
balletyas replied to Bluebird's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
Yes I think that's probably true regarding the orderly queue and hopefully she is working towards the big parts for the following season but I'm still surprised by all the Hamilton casting - I don't think she has lived up to her potential of late, although it must be said that I didn't see her in Jewels so maybe Im being a bit harsh...- 113 replies

Royal Ballet Autumn 2017 Casting
balletyas replied to Bluebird's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
I so agree. Very disappointed by the lack of Nagdhi - seems very strange given how well she acquitted herself this last season. And is it just me but doesn't there seem to be an awful lot of Hamilton!- 113 replies
