A few words from Yasmine and Francesca

It's starting!!!

I'm sure that won't be answered in the next 15-20 minutes

Quick heads up......There's going to be a report on the BBC 6 o'clock news about the RB's attempt to be more diverse

Don’t these people realise all their problems can be solved by rebranding themselves as Royal Opera House & Partners!?

Yep, just checked (for the squilionth time) and all 5 hours of it is up in one video...cheekily they claim it was uploaded 2 hours ago

I subscribe to the ROH youtube channel and the most recent content on there that I can see is the Unknown Soldier Insight

You may have seen the multiple uses of the phrase We've taken the decision to share the stream on Facebook in order to reach as many people as possible, on the ROH website.....every year I watch the Goodwood Festival of Speed on Youtube or Facebook (they use both) on the days that I don't go to the event in person, it works well for hours and hours a a time and throughout the day links on their FB page which followers will also pick up on their newsfeed so clips of interesting incidents which also serve as reminders that this event is on to see. I have no idea why the ROH can't do the same or very similar unless it's down to Youtube fees

There seem to be no posts today on the ROH's FB page

Just got home from work.....hunting high and low to find any RB content from today, preferably the La B rehearsal

At least some of these titles and more are available in the shop.....and if you go right this second Vadim is on display in Floral Street (probably on his lunch break) 🙂

The website eventually worked....slowly getting through the reviews but a line in the assessment of the latest Nutcracker rather jarred.... 'In 2006 the Arabian girl was too fat (Laura McCullock); in 2016, she's too lean (Itziar Mendizabal): '

If you can get the pages to load it appears to be very useful re the ballet reviews

I sense Vadim Muntagirov fans are itching to have a go 😂

This thread is weird!!!🙃

I was impressed with his legs

Alexander appears at 1hr 05 until 1hr 30. It was an enjoyable 25 minutes

Don't you fee(l) you've missed a major clue with your choi(ce) of guess? If you are quickish you've got time for one more go. There's a smack on the way for anyone that says Bolle or Soares!!

Ok, that's cleared that up....hoping Stevie will be along to help my brain later.

Is he playing the Sausage Sandwich game?

You've both confused me 🙃

Exactly! I didn’t think I’d had an original idea! 😂

I raised that question with the listed contact on the pointe shoe appeal page after I recently won a pair of Yuhui's shoes in a silent (but deadly!) auction run by a dance school in Australia (the shoes were from the RB's Brisbane shows last summer)...over a month later I haven't had a reply, maybe she's too busy counting all those £39 donations that people are falling over themselves to give. Obviously they're not going to find homes for 6000 pairs every year but I thought a decent selection may bring in some money rather than we just see photos of shoes in a bin from various dancers on Instagram

I couldn't possibly say, but you're welcome to guess if you fee(l) lucky.

I know now how you feel, I need one of those post-booking cigarettes...and I don’t even smoke!!
