If it's any comfort Marianna's tights and shoes were the same colour as all the other snowflakes and flowers today and I didn't see any problem with her Giselle tights, it's not as if the Wilis wear white costumes -

Marianna has been in Marianna has been in all the Act 2s I saw and wore tonal tights. She also matches your Act 1 description....and although I wasn't there was in the closing performance -

I'm afraid my last Giselle was yesterday. -

Sambe's sword end hit the floor and bounced back up quite noticeably during the transition from shed to this mime so he was probably checking it was still in one piece and not bent. 😄 Sambe also had the most polite 'no Wilfred, I don't need my cape right now' I've seen too.🙂 -

I miscounted...today makes a final tally of 11 and I think today may have been my favourite overall performance. No flower pot or key dramas, no Mr Bravo, my favourite Giselle and very pleased to see the Pajdak/Lubach duo that I assumed would be in tomorrow's cast as that's usually my luck.- 838 replies

They were M&Z in the schools matinee but I’d not seen Romany in any of the 9 performances I’d seen so far. -

She also had a problem at the start of the last week, having to go back on to two feet although still en pointe. Cesar had the best 'key out of the pouch challenge' I've seen in several performances too....if it were me I'd probably just start the performance with it in my hand just to avoid it -

Yep...Mr Bravo decided to do his thing in that complete silence immediately before Myrtha threw her twigs towards the wings. 🤦♂️ -
I think the idea is that’s the rightful owner of the unique piece is registered. What they then do with it is up to them. If they put it out in to the public domain then what other people try to do with it would realistically be out of their hands.

If you are going to use this kind of lift you need to combine it with the RB's Wilis graveside gathering to cover this rather mechanical entrance. -

Why would they bury her down a lift shaft!? -
It seems NFTs are now a catch all term for digital media because Osipova's are straightforward ownership of a unique video. What I don't get are things like owning somebody's tweet.
