I did! I'm relatively new to ballet watching so excuse me if this isn't the right interpretation. But it's not very clear to me what Odile _is_ exactly. I find myself thinking "Is she an actual person with her own thoughts? Or is she just something constructed by Rothbart as a pawn to harm Odette". Because of that, I find the "evil" that is expressed through another medium feels almost soldier-like, if that makes sense. Mama Elena, at least in the book, has personal and selfish reasons to hurt Tita. I am interested to see how expressing that level of "evil" would be interpreted through dance.

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but was there a ROH insight on 17/03? I can't find any information about it. Thanks in advance x.

Ryoichi is in SCS near 1B. Not sure about the others as I saw them going back stage by the private door by 1A. Wayne was just mingling in PHH. A very cheerful crowd tonight!- 1,276 replies

Well despite our best efforts we are currently stuck in complete gridlock traffic. Any idea if they might start slightly later to accommodate for the strike?- 1,276 replies

Thanks! It's so weird, I also don't have the email (shared a few posts ago) sharing the streaming link.

Oh sorry, thanks for the correction @art_enthusiast — I meant the in person event is not free but of course if it's on YouTube it'll be free of charge 😊 However, I'm not sure if it's being live-streamed because it doesn't say "camera filming" for the event description.

No, it's £20 (there are still tickets left, though). Cast sheet says it's Kaneko and Bonelli so I'm guessing it'll be a swan lake rehearsal tonight. It will definitely be worth going in person!

Royal Ballet’s The Nutcracker Winter 2021/22
whatkindofbird replied to Sim's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
Would love to hear more about yesterday's (25th) performance from those who were there! -
You should definitely make a day of it! Both David and Hannah teaches at Central on Sundays — maybe try David's 11:00 class then Hannah's at 15:00?

Hi all, I'm new on here so please let me know if I'm missing any important information! I'm selling a brand new Zidans T-leotard in beige. In my recent order, I mistakenly got a small (when I should've gotten a medium, as the other items in my purchase were medium!) but I just think it's too much of a faff to return it all the way back to Russia — would love to see if go to a loving home in the UK instead. Hoping to get £50 including shipping anywhere in the UK, or can meet somewhere near London E2 or Royal Opera House in person! Here's the item: https://zidans.ru/product/Tleotardbeige?lang=en
