  1. Anyone seen this? https://t.co/7dsGGMXiSO Sharon Stone took pics of Swan Lake and tweeted it. Matt Bourne's response was perfect which was to thank her for going but said she was naughty for taking pics. I do have an issue with people taking photos during a performance but wonder whether the publicity of the ballet to a wider audience outweighs the negatives? Thoughts anyone?
  2. Thank you. Without this forum, I'd be so lost. You've pulled together a community who has some valuable info and advice that I have benefitted so much from. Thank you and hope you're having a lovely break xx
  3. http://www.itsalawyerslife.com/weekend-world-cats-the-movie-review-by-rachel/ A review of Cats by a barrister who goes against the grain of the negative views, if anyone is interested
  4. Thank you. I'll take a look. I've been trying to find this series for years!
  5. You don't happen to have the drina ballerina series by Jean estoril at all please? I read these as a child but can't find them for my DD. Many thanks x
  6. This masterclass was today. DD said it's by far one of the best masterclasses she's done. Very challenging and thoroughly enjoyable. Thoroughly recommended
  7. Sorry to be thick. Leg rises. Are they the same as going on tiptoe then back down? Not quite down with the lingo yet
  8. RT and have commented. Ridiculous to think that this is only just happening in 2019!!
  9. We missed her ballet exam for the finals. Told her this morning. She's a little disappointed but said stoically 'well, the competition is tough and the other girls were better than me'. She's my hero.
  10. You're welcome 😂 I'll have to tell my DD in the morning she didn't get through. Bit sad about it as it would have been an amazing opp but I'm sure she will be fine. Does anyone know if previous years' dancers will always make the cut? DD was auditioning in the same group as that amazing girl who was Posy in Ballet Shoes last year. Massive congrats to those who got through. Commiserations to those who didn't.
  11. A no for us. Turns out the email was sent hours earlier but landed in my spam! Well done everyone who got through
  12. Me neither. I hope we hear soon. I'd like to book my hols whilst there are some good Black Fri deals still on...
  13. No the masterclass is open to anyone I think. The application form is on the website
  14. Oh and I specifically asked about the suggested Dec date as I wanted to book my hols. They reassured me Monday.
  15. They called me yesterday about the masterclass. They said results were supposed to be yesterday but will be Monday now.
  16. I remember being at secondary school with a girl who used to darn her pointe shoes before registration and during break times. This was years ago now. Do people still darn their pointe shoes?
  17. Black character skirt with blue ribbons. Waist 22" Length 24" Anyone please?
  18. The lady told us as we were leaving that we would hear back this week. Anyone else told that?
  19. It's a competition thing. Nylon ones look shiny... I actually emailed the organisers about it last year and this was the response 'the Organiser who has advised that they prefer nylon lycra as it looks better under the lights, but would suggest a different colour than navy. If her other leotard is a prettier colour then the Organiser has suggested that she should wear that.'
