And, hurrah, Will Gompertz gives Lauren Cuthbertson the acknowledgement she deserves, "one of the finest dancers of her generation, gives a wonderfully nuanced and intelligent performance.

Royal Ballet Onegin 2020
MargaretN7 replied to Richard LH's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
As far as the duel is concerned, and after way back when on first viewing I too wondered about ladies present and no seconds, I've provided myself with a side story. The girls have waylaid the protagonists on their way to the duel, then we see at the back of the stage just part of the field where the duel is taking place, the seconds are there too but to the side where we can't see them. 🙂- 410 replies

Royal Ballet Sleeping Beauty, 2019-20
MargaretN7 replied to annamk's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
Saw this evenings Sleeping Beauty at the cinema, as a changevfom all the others I've seen this run at ROH. Sad that Lauren Cuthbertson was unable to dance, best wishes to her. However I totally enjoyed it, and thought all, yes all, the dancers were excellent.- 954 replies

The Guadian decided to send their dance and stage critics to see the film. See today's links. Both enjoyed it, thought the film critics were wrong.

Yes, it was indeed Francesca singing. I took my son to see the stage show of Cats for his 10th birthday outing. He has just taken me to the film for a 75th birthday outing. We both enjoyed it.

I attended an insight with the props department when they were preparing this production, began in the Clore then moved up to their workshops. That large section at the back of the Lilac Fairy's vehicle (look away now if you don't want to know the answer) is- 954 replies

Royal Ballet - Coppelia (Dec. 2019 - Jan. 2020)
MargaretN7 replied to Sim's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
I showed Kevin O'Hare my programme of the first time I saw Coppelia (also my first visit to ROH), 22nd January 1955. He almost drooled over the cast listing, not only for who but also because it listed everyone, and I mean everyone. He said he wishes they could do that now, especially the dolls, but it would most likely necessitate too many cast change announcements. -

I read somewhere, forgotten where, that this electrical variation is celebrating the theatre where it was performed being newly lit by electricity. (Michael Faraday had demonstrated the electric motor and generator in the 1820's, and before that there was static electricity)- 954 replies
