  1. Some have a Nutcracker Encore screening between Christmas and New year.
  2. Stepanek' s Lensky and Galeazzi's Tatiana are ones that'll stay in my memory.
  3. Changes, now on website, from info given in House magazine:- Manon Insight still in Clore but on Wednesday 7th March 2018, not Thursday 8th March. The In Conversation with Yasmine Naghdi on 6th March, and the RB in Rehearsal on 4th April, dates unchanged but now in the Linden Studio over the road at the RB School.
  4. I've just finished Judith Mackrell's biography of Lydia Lopokova - Bloomsbury Ballerina. An excellent read, from her early days in Russia, to her time with, or without, Diaghilev, to her time with her husband, Maynard Keynes, in England. It is not a thin book!
  5. That's what we were told with the Conservatory/Crush Room as well, but no sign of any merging yet
  6. It depends on your daughter. Of my 3 granddaughters, when they were 10 two I would have taken, one I wouldn't .
  7. Anyone else watch this? It was really weird. In the introduction they said Satie went to prison after the first performance - for punching a critic. Hmm!

  11. And how many noticed, I Wonder, that the King of Hearts had a jam tart hidden under his throne and got it out to eat when his wife wasn't looking? Jammy, Mr Gartside! :-D
  12. My error. I got the titles of the Pita and Tharpe pieces mixed up.
  13. In ROH News cast changes, Ed Watson is set to replace Marcelino Sambe in Wind on 6th and 17th November. So that's a new role to learn, or perhaps there might be choreographic changes to be worked on.
  14. Selling RB Alice in Wonderland SCS D10, £10, Saturday 28th October 2017, 7pm. PM me if interested Margaret

  19. Suitable age and ballet for first visit can, and will vary, and sometimes you think you know the child then discover something new about them. Three of my granddaughters, one age 5 (totally enthralled by Romeo and Juliet, re-enacted the next day with her dolls), one age 7 (Sleeping Beauty), one decided she preferred opera!
