I’d been searching for an SCS place for tonight for about a month, one finally showed up while I was on the train to the matinee!!! ☺️- 697 replies

SCS or Stalls Circle C22?!
Rob S replied to Cescablue's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
Yes it’s really down to the person say in front of you, sometimes it’s fine, sometimes not. That said I have a D2 I’ll be selling for Manon because D5 eventually came up- 14 replies

Rob S replied to Cescablue's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
D2 is reliant on someone not too tall sitting in the high chair in front, at least the pillar isn’t too intrusive…I buy D1-4 as a last resort. Not sat in C22 but it looks like a lot of leaning may be in order to see the left hand side of the stage- 14 replies

They left that very late, but as they’ve said Isabel Lubach is doing the Arabian dance I’ll let them off ☺️ -

There doesn’t seem to be much room to do anything, that doorstep looks like an accident waiting to happen ⚠️ -

Basically, I don't know. I use spot metering and the colour can change depending on exactly where I'm pointing but not during one burst of shots. Don Q and Nutcracker are particularly bad for strong orange colour casts. -

I wouldn't try to look too hard in to the colours of things, out of the camera all the curtain call pictures come out orange 😄 -

It was before I’d seen my first ballet and two years before my first trip to the ROH

Do you want me to paint over some of my submission and leave the country?

Ooo no Sissens this evening, Acri instead -
As a huge John Singer Sargent fan I have to say Strapless...I hear reviews weren't good but I wanna see it. Symphonic Variations, obviously Symphony in C plus Month/Les Pats/The Concert

In the last run of Swan Lake there was a clip on social media that showed the line up of Odettes pinned to a notice board and Yuhui and Melissa were the reserves, so it's not like she's not being considered. With seven shows still to cast, or at least announce, three will go to Osipova, at least two to Takada...there must be a chance that one or two first soloists will get a performance

Right on cue, Hirano has posted on Instagram that he's at Sudeley Castle with Sarah😄
-
Sarah is my favourite principal and although I've only been watching live for five and a half years she's had a number of different partners in my time, it's not all Hirano....in the last run of SB she was partnered by McRae and Sambe....,Vadim in R&J, Manon and Nutcracker... McRae in R&J, Mayerling, Cinderella and Nutcracker, Sambe in Giselle.

Back to 24 snowflakes, which is so much better than 16. Mouse king still appears via the king large chair rather than the floor though
