Just a reminder that the downstairs cloakroom (like the downstairs gents loo) is temporary and will return to the ground floor once the works are completed. As an aside, as the gents will eventually become an extension of the ladies, the plumbing is set up for cubicles - this makes the layout of the urinals rather odd!

Important cast changes ROH
bangorballetboy replied to Beryl H's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
Ditto. I wasn't sure whether to go tonight or not (still having many memories of last Friday's Bonelli, Morera, Cowley et al show) but this has probably tipped the balance. -
Thats not quite right; Marie's parents entered into a morganatic marriage the year after she was born.

I don't think that's correct. Rudolf's daughter was the main beneficiary of his will with some legacies made to members of the household and staff.

The horse that won the 2000 Guineas and the Derby in 1836 was called Bay Middleton. May be a connection?

Melissa Hamilton - news
bangorballetboy replied to capybara's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
Well patrons' booking has already begun. If you don't think patrons should get casting early, are you suggesting they should book blind of casting? I'd find that thoroughly unsatisfactory. And the "embargo" seems to work pretty well on the basis of the last couple of years. I don't see what the problem is, provided no-one is in the position of booking without knowing the casting. -
