Not much luck either for English ballet dancers in this country since out of 70 dancers only 25 are British in the English National Ballet, even less likely to become a soloist since 2 out 25 only are british.

At the Royal Ballet the principals want to dance everything withoutit necessarily being a good idea. Thus we could see this week Anne-Rose O’Sullivan and Marcelino Sambé in Nutcracker’spas de deux. To my opinion Marcelino Sambé unfortunately do not have the sufficient size for such a role, we would like to see Anne-Rose O'Sullivan with another partner. As for Marcelino Sambé, so exceptional in a more neo-classical repertoire, he is struggling here and seems really uncomfortable technically speaking in this role. Anne-Rose O’Sullivan is a nice (and worried) dancer, we can see sheis struggling tofinish her variation and that she is concerned about her fouettés, we feel that she is tired and that it is time for all this to end. Two generous performers to see in another repertoire. -
Manège Angela, ménage is something else (household)

who is in charge of the company at the moment ?

you say too much or not enough

I have to say that Kevin O'Hare interest in Ryoichi Hirano has always been a mystery to me.
We have here a solid dancer but without much brilliance to my eyes.
Quite boring actually.

Regarding the number of tickets sold I think the fact that Flight Pattern is mainly a group piece does not help.

yes I know, that's why I used the conditional.

Yes bridiem, when you think it will approximately be the same length as Dances at gathering....

Very very short evening !
And very expensive if you buy a 105 pounds ticket...
I think (and I absolutely love Crystal Pite) this kind of show should be scheduled at Sadler's Wells.

Fonty,
Forgotten Land is not contemporary dance, it's full of arabesques, temps levés, grand jetés... And it's very musical which is not surprising when you think it was made 40 years ago for the Stuttgarter Ballett by Jiri Kyliàn. Very vintage.

I would not like to be in the place of Mr Watkin, the next few years will surely be very difficult for many reasons.

What happened to Rina Kanehara ? She was a promising upcoming dancer a few years ago and seems to have disappeared...
And yes : I am surprised that Daniel McCormick is not cast as Siegfried.
BTW who is going to be in charge of the company this season ?

Wonderful news !
But I just wonder why you have a forum ! you are so keen to avoid discussions or what you call suppositions, it's really quite difficult to understand 😀

This programme is a real disappointment for me !
Vincente Nebrada and Valery Panov are choreographers who seem particularly old-fashioned to me.
They are so many living choreographers whose works are more interesting !

Not until the end of the season...

😀 you need a third time ?
classes are for dancers not for the audience
have a good afternoon !
-
I confirm what I wrote : classes are for the dancers not for the audience.
-
I don't, thank you for your clever advice !

I am a friend of ENB.
Friend of ENB because I want to support the excellent and visionary work of Tamara Rojo.
On the other hand I find ridiculous to see her giving barre in her kitchen and her husband turning and jumping in the same kitchen.
Just very cheap to my eyes, I could do without all that !

Capybara, 😀
You are just a member of the audience....
Reading your list looks like you want to be in the company or that you usually feel like you are part of the company.
Classes are for dancers not for the audience, do you want to be part of internal meetings as well ?
The Royal Ballet's mission is to present shows in its theater, all you mention there is pure communication derived from our time.
Maybe we could accept that the House is going to be closed until at least next Autumn ?
-
May I ask what you would like them (RB) to do ?
Most of the things proposed elsewhere is just communication, nothing to see with art (to my humble opinion)...

Angela, can you explain why you write Figueredo has been unlucky until now ? I remember him well from Prix de Lausanne.
