... and possibly Reece Clark but not sure as whoever it was lurked at the back? 

I also thought that Luca Acri (unsurprisingly) was very impressive

Yes Reece was there, as well as Akane Takada

Looks like the intervals have been reduced to 25 minutes, hurrah!

Last night certainly finished earlier than other shows...I thought my watch had stopped when I checked the time on the walk to Tottenham Court Road tube station....based on EXIF data on my pics my first pic was at 2209 but the same opening shot for other recent shows were 2221 the previous night, 2219, 2218 and various matinees would be the equivalent of 2218-20ish.....but if you look at the digital cast lists they've all been shown as 25 min intervals except for opening night when they were 30 mins (but Act one was listed as 5 mins shorter than all the other shows)

Thanks, Dawnstar.  I don't think Rob was taking photos that early in the proceedings.

I take pics as soon as the proceedings start but didn’t take any of this chap.

A couple of photos of the presentation (not the best photos so if anyone - @Rob S? - has better ones then I can delete mine).

 

 

Has Mr O'Hare had his chin pushed back by The Dancing Master from Act 1?😄

Incidentally, was Olga Sabadoch, 'fairy godmother in disguise' as she is now listed, playing the role at all performances so far? And does anyone know why she was brought in for the role?

Yes, she's played all of them, she's great...I'd be very disappointed if someone else turned up...I don't want the fairy godmother in disguise in disguise!!

This ticket is now spoken for.

The last pic provides evidence for an earlier question about the presence of RBS dancers in the corps…I think that’s Ariana Allen 🤔

For sale is D3, a quite magnificent perch offering spectacular views of the fireplace and bookcase in Acts 1 & 3 as well as the gardens and shenanigans of Act 2

Please message, pleeeeease!

I was on the page at 9am and there was nothing left but restricted view seats only. Nothing in the stalls or front rows of the stalls circle at all!

Seems like there were hardly any reserved for public booking to be begin with.

Oh ok, thank you that makes me feel a bit better🙂

Damn....the reminders function on my iPhone failed to remind me of the booking opening today and only just seen this...my place for the RBS performance is in the attic of the amphitheatre!!!🤦‍♂️

I reckon Yasmine might be my favourite Cinderella 🤔

Sorry, rather confused....aren't  Autumn and the FG on together in Act 2? So  who was the FG?

Fairy Godmother isn’t invited to act 2 

Yes it was Annette in act 2, maybe Isabella Gasparini had to come in from home for act 3?

I think they try to get to all her performances. 😊

Yes I’ve just seen them at the second interval 

Napoleon’s wig was on the floor longer than it was on his head tonight!! 😆

Hi @capybara,

 

 I’m not sure I understand where you’re heading when you say, “de-clutter the sides of the stage in terms of ‘onlookers' ….?
 

😀

Get rid of Stage Centre Standing!!😄

What does everyone (who bought/read one) think of the current Cinderella programme, from ROH?

Can't say I was impressed when I took a glance - at all!! 6/8 pages (3/4 double spreads) of blurry, unidenifiable flower meadows. (??) Pages with blurry rehearsal photos (arty? - do me a favour, just get in a professional photographer!). You know you're in trouble when the synopsis is IN BIG PRINT to fill out more space....

I don't mind the blurry flowers separating each section.....what I found incredibly jarring was the unidentified headless torso clutching some flowers

Has the father always ripped the scarf between the sisters….I noticed he did today but I’m on the other side to my first four performances. In those half of them resulted in the scarf not tearing in half and the junior sister ended up with all of it
