Kevin O'Hare announced before curtain up that Reece had sustained an injury today and that Lukas was kind enough to step in after his great debut earlier this week.- 697 replies

German Ballet Tour- February 2024 - help needed!
Silke H replied to Richard C's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
Hi Richard, It seems guided tours are sporadic only At Bayerische Staatsoper there's one on 20th Feb at 2pm (in case you arrive in Munich a couple of days prior to La Bayadere) Bayerische Staatsoper tour 20 Feb 24 Tickets are €10 per person In Berlin you'd be much luckier, as there's a guided tour at Deutsche Oper Berlin on the 24th Feb at 2pm Deutsche Oper Berlin tour 24 Feb 24 tickets are €5 per person At Semperoper you're in luck that there's even an English guided tour on 27th Feb Semperoper 27 Feb 24 tickets are €14 per person Tours of Oper Leipzig are organised by 'Leipzig Erleben', seemingly upon request only Oper Leipzig I hope this helps as a start ☺️ -

RB Nutcracker Dec/Jan 23/24
Silke H replied to Ondine's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
Could whoever is at tonight's Nutcracker (21/12) please advise who danced the Soldier act 1 and Chinese with Joonhyuk in act 2? Cast sheet says Alexander Lee but I presume that's Harrison Lee? (he's danced those roles before) -
Wanted: RB Nutcracker 05 Jan 2024 SCS * 2
Silke H posted a topic in Ticket Exchange & Special Offers
I'm looking for 2 tickets, decent Stalls Circle Standing (D-11 to D-44) or Central Balcony Standing (D-30 to D-33), for Friday 5th January 2024 7:30pm, they don't need to be together. A friend of mine is unexpectedly visiting from France, otherwise I would have booked earlier. Many thanks in advance for any leads or offers. -

I agree, I always have to adjust the general colour of my curtain call photos, from an orangey-pink to a more palatable hue -

@ellyb - I don't think you need to fear this Nutcracker going away any time soon. The Royal Ballet gives The Nutcracker a little rest from time to time over the Christmas period. In 2019/20 we saw Coppélia around Christmas/New Year, 2014/15 was Alice and Don Q, 2010/11 was Tales of Beatrix Potter/Les Patineurs -
My fantasy mixed bill suggestions: Tribute to Balanchine: Ballo della Regina / Tarantella / Tschaikovsky PDD / Symphony in C - Tschai Pas is just too short on its on so I'd throw Tarantella in the mix 4 seasons of Ashton: Voices of Spring / A Month in the Country / La Valse / Les Patineurs (to me La Valse has an autumn feel) Yellow colour-scheme: Concerto / Scènes de Ballet / Rhapsody Animal combination of Company and School: Peter and the Wolf (school) - Matthew Hart / Carnival of the Animals - Chris Wheeldon for NYCB / Still Life at the Penguin Café - David Bintley I'm sure I'll think of some more

RB Nutcracker Dec/Jan 23/24
Silke H replied to Ondine's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
I am in the same camp as @annamk - for me the Kaneko/Bracewell partnership is currently the most special and my preferred pairing amongst RB principals. Yet, I still get goosebumps thinking back to Fumi's Odette/Odile debut with Federico Bonelli. Who knows whether that could have been an equally thrilling partnership. And what about Fumi, Vadim and Yasmine in Mayerling... wasn't that quite something as well? I am absolutely looking forward to seeing Swan Lake with all the pairings as they are cast next season but am hoping for further Kaneko/Bracewell Romeo and Juliet performances when that returns.- 697 replies

Silke H replied to BalletcoForum Moderators's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
yes, ROH provided them upon request from cast sheet/programme sales ushers. I loved the note in the old cast sheets: "Silence sponsored by Sela Cough" They tasted nice and their wrapper wasn't a noisy one either. -
