Hope you found it worthwhile, Simon!  (You can discuss it here http://www.balletcoforum.com/index.php?/topic/10781-bolshoi-cinema-broadcasts-2015-2016/) if you like.  I've now moved this into the main 15-16 cinema thread.

 

I'd forgotten it was on, quite frankly: I was asking at my local about Bolshoi broadcasts the other day, so I guess they're not doing the repeats - again.  Anyway, I'd seen this one once already.

Ballets Russes is scheduled but not live -  a pre recorded version.14 Jan 2016.  It includes Petrouchka ,Spectre de la  rose, Afternoon of a faune

And Iolanta/Nutcracker - the new production of Nutcracker with some of the choreography by Liam Scarlett  17 March 2016 in cinemas.

 

Often these performances are recorded and played on Culturebox or Arte and are available for some months to replay at leisure.

For example the most recent one is the Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker programme which is on Arte and doesn't appear to be geoblocked.  Odd filming at times but worth a look.  The final piece is Transfigured Night -

Well, it's not a live broadcast, but I thought the dates which Katherine has added in the "Bolshoi Babylon" thread ought to be copied here too:

I'm not sure whether I should post this here, or whether it should have its own page, but when I was looking at the listings for Monte-Carlo's Nutcracker screening I came across this site:

 

https://www.ourscreen.com/about-ourscreen/

 

It seems to be a sort of nationwide(ish) DIY cinema programming scheme - get enough people together and you can arrange a screening.  I was aware that the NFT/BFI offers something similar in London, but this is the first time I can remember seeing signs of anything similar anywhere else.  Wouldn't it be great if we could arrange some dance-based screenings?  So if, say, Bolshoi Babylon isn't showing near you, get a group of people together and you might be able to arrange a screening.

PRESS RELEASE

 

MATTHEW BOURNE’S AWARD-WINNING DANCE PRODUCTION

THE CAR MAN

RELEASED IN CINEMAS NATIONWIDE FROM 1 MARCH 2016

 

Running time 98 minutes

BBFC Cert 12A

 

Recently knighted and internationally acclaimed choreographer Matthew Bourne’s stunning dance thriller, The Car Man, will be released in cinemas across the UK from 1 March 2016. Performed by Matthew Bourne’s Dance Company, New Adventures, the award-winning The Car Man is loosely based on Bizet’s popular opera (CARMEN) and has one of the most thrilling and instantly recognisable scores in classical music, brilliantly arranged by Terry Davies. 

 

The familiar 19th Century Spanish cigarette factory becomes a greasy garage-diner in 1960’s America where the dreams and passions of a small-town are shattered by the arrival of a handsome stranger. Fuelled by heat and desire, the inhabitants are driven into an unstoppable spiral of greed, lust, betrayal and revenge. Lez Brotherston’s epic design, Chris Davey’s evocative lighting and Matthew Bourne’s vivid storytelling take in a wealth of cinematic references, creating a powerful and uncompromising vision of small-town America.

 

Filmed live at Sadler’s Wells Theatre, London in August 2015 and starring an outstanding cast of dancers praised for the power and magnetism of their performances, the title role of ‘Luca, The Car Man’, is played by CHRIS TRENFIELD; ‘Lana’ by ZIZI STRALLEN; ‘Rita’, Lana’s sister is performed by KATE LYONS; ‘Angelo’ is played by DOMINIC NORTH; and ‘Dino’ by ALAN VINCENT. In addition Zizi Strallen has been nominated for the Outstanding Female Performance category in the National Dance Awards for her performance as Lana in The Car Man.

 

Matthew Bourne comments: “Of all our New Adventure’s dance productions The Car Man has become the show that is most often mentioned as a ‘favourite’ by audience members, and it’s loved by the dancers too who relish the chance to perform such gutsy and challenging roles. I’m delighted that dance fans across the UK will have the opportunity to watch this incredibly powerful 2015 revival on the big screen at their local cinema.”

 

The Car Man is the third Matthew Bourne production to be distributed to cinemas worldwide by London-based Event Cinema specialist More2Screen, following on from Swan Lake 3D in 2012 and Sleeping Beauty in 2014.

 

                                                                                          ****

 

Released in Cineworld, Picturehouse and independent cinemas across the UK from 1 March 2016.

Dates and times vary.

Notes To Editors:

 

MATTHEW BOURNE

Matthew Bourne is widely hailed as the UK’s most popular and successful choreographer and director. He is the creator of the world’s longest running ballet production, a five-time Olivier Award winner, and the only British director to have won the Tony Award for both Best Choreographer and Best Director of a Musical. Matthew started his dance training at the comparatively late age of 22. He danced professionally for 14 years creating many roles in his own work. As Artistic Director of his first company, Adventures in Motion Pictures from 1987 until 2002 Matthew created many award winning works. Further hit productions were created when New Adventures was launched in 2002, becoming the UK’s busiest and most successful dance company and the major exporter of British dance across the world. Matthew is also a West End and Broadway choreographer; a more than 20 year relationship with producer, Cameron Mackintosh has resulted in the globally successful musicals Mary Poppins, My Fair Lady and Oliver!

 

In 2008 he established his charity Re:Bourne to increase opportunities that inspire young people with a passion for dance and in 2010 created the New Adventures Choreographer Award to showcase the talents of emerging choreographers. Matthew is a Companion of his former college, Trinity Laban and the Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts. He has five Honorary Doctorates from The Open University, and the Universities of De Montford, Plymouth, Kingston and Roehampton. He is a proud patron of many organisations including The Arts Educational School, Laine Theatre Arts, CREATE and Shoreditch Youth Dance. 

 

The De Valois Award for Outstanding Achievement at the Critics Circle National Dance Awards was awarded to Matthew in 2013. In 2015 Matthew was awarded a Special UK Theatre Award for Outstanding Contribution to British Theatre. Matthew was Knighted in the Queen’s New Years Honours for services to Dance in 2016.

 

NEW ADVENTURES

 New Adventures is the UK’s most in demand contemporary Dance/Theatre touring company. Under the inspired leadership of Artistic Director, Matthew Bourne, it has, over the last 28 years, changed the landscape of British dance with an award-winning repertory of works that have brought unprecedented new audiences to theatres throughout the UK and internationally. Matthew Bourne and his team of world-class collaborators have consistently produced some of the most successful dance productions ever staged. Since its formation in 2002, New Adventures has created an enviable repertory of acclaimed new works (Play Without Words, Edward Scissorhands, Dorian Gray, Lord Of The Flies and Sleeping Beauty) as well as new productions of popular favourites from Matthew Bourne’s former company, Adventures In Motion Pictures (1987-2002) - Nutcracker!, Swan Lake, Highland Fling, The Car ManCinderella and the mixed programme Early Adventures. The Company regularly employs over 60 dancers annually, and they are widely recognised as the finest group of actor/dancers working in the UK today. New Adventures is proud to be Resident Company at Sadler’s Wells Theatre, London where it regularly performs record-breaking extended seasons. The company annually undertakes extensive country-wide touring, appearing at more venues and giving more performances each year than any other UK dance company. British dance’s biggest export for over 10 years, New Adventures has performed seasons at the world’s most iconic venues (Sydney Opera House, New York City Center, The Chatalet in Paris, The Kennedy Center, Washington and The Moscow Arts Theatre) the most prestigious Festivals (Edinburgh, Ravenna and Chekhov International Festivals) and regularly tours to Japan, the USA, Australia, Europe and Russia. Mixing popular appeal with a ground-breaking and unique theatrical language, New Adventures is one of the great success stories of British Theatre. The Company has notched up a staggering ten Olivier nominations for its productions, has won the Manchester Evening News Dance Award five times and was given a Special TMA award for its commitment to national touring. In 2008 Re:Bourne, the charitable-arm of the company, was established to discover, inspire and train the next generation of dancers and dance audiences. The charity has worked with over 100,000 young people in the UK and overseas and it’s 2014 production Lord of the Flies received critical acclaim across the country. In 2012 the company celebrated its 25th Anniversary, performing six diverse works at 32 UK venues. This culminated in the World Premiere of Matthew Bourne’s latest hit production of Tchaikovsky’s Sleeping Beauty in October 2012. In 2014 New Adventures and Re:Bourne were invited to join Arts Council England’s national portfolio from April 2015.

I just had an email from Cineworld advising the local showing of Romeo and Juliet on 14/2 has been cancelled.  The wording was generic suggesting it affects multiple or all Cineworld cinemas.  They are refunding the tickets and giving free vouchers by way of compensation. Still annoying though, I'd rescheduled various things around this performance :(

Sorry for all who booked tickets - but somehow I am not very surprised at the turn of events. Very underpublicised and in a curious selection of venues across the UK, I was wondering what was behind this series of screenings, at least so far as we in Britain are concerned.

Thanks Alison. Apologies, I was actually being a bit colloquial (I meant what, rather than who or which company which is anyway on the website, was behind the screenings) - the whole thing looked a bit of a poor deal shuffled together clumsily by a small or disinterested distributor, and so one wondered what was going on, that's all. Sorry for being unclear, I was just puzzled by the offer.

Sorry, obviously misread "what" as "who" :)

 

I've said it before (so many times), but cinemas, companies and distributors really need to get their act together on this.  There's clearly a market for the broadcasts, but even now, the problems I have trying to get information about them ...  Twice in a not-too-local Odeon, 3 times in 3 different Picturehouses, I've tried to get hold of printed information about what is being shown and when, and getting blood out of the proverbial stone would be easier!  And they *still* haven't really got the mailing lists together properly.  I did get something from Picturehouses the other week, but again it's not laid out in a suitably list-like format to make it easy to read.

I've just checked my booking for the San Francisco R and J for this Sunday at Cineworld Didcot, and it still seems to be in place. I've certainly not heard otherwise from the cinema. Fingers crossed!

 

Doesn't seem to be on at Wandsworth now, where I was thinking of going. Or anywhere in London. Why do they list it and then withdraw it?! Thanks for letting us know, Quintus; I would have had a wasted trip.

This is still listed at a few Cineworld cinemas, see http://www1.cineworld.co.uk/films/san-francisco-ballet-romeo-and-juliet/, but this is a much reduced list. It's no longer on at Solihull where I was going to see it. If it had been completely cancelled I could understand it but why is it still showing at some cinemas and not all the others originally announced?

Whoopee: after all these years of moaning, what has dropped into my inbox this morning but an email from Odeon entitled "Top event cinema screenings for Alison‏"! That's more like it.

I see casting has been announced on the Bolshoi website for the cinema Don Q. It is Krysanova and Chudin, with Medvedev as Gamanche, Skorsov as Espada and Karasyova as Mercedes and Smirnova as Queen of the dryads. Good to see different casting; sounds as if it's going to be really good. Would have liked to see Merkuiev as Espada or better still, Basil. he danced it on their last visit to London.
