The irony of having an empty diary and then all of a sudden something cropped up that I could not get out of meant that I was unable to attend Brandon's talk. Thank you so much for publishing the notes from the talk, I've really enjoyed reading them. Along with his recent Open Barre podcasts this proves that Brandon is one of the brightest stars in the ballet firmament both on and off the stage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LBC Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 The LBC’s terrific line-up of guests for the In Conversation evenings on Zoom continues next Wednesday, 30th September at 7.00pm with Erina Takahashi, Lead Principal of English National Ballet, and her husband James Streeter, First Soloist of English National Ballet. Both James and Erina trained at the ENB School. Erina has danced with ENB for 24 years, 20 of them as a Principal. James is, perhaps, best known for his character roles and as Albrecht in Akram Khan’s Giselle. Together, they led the ground-breaking performance of Dust (also by Akram Khan) on The Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury. The links to their biographies on the ENB website are below. In addition: Erina has recently been recognised with a nomination in the Arts and Culture category of the Asian Women of Achievement Awards. The ceremony is on the 28th September; and only this week, as part ENB’s new Dance Leaders of the Future Programme, James produced the highly successful 2020 Emerging Dancer event, which was live-streamed on Tuesday from the Production Studio in the company’s City Island headquarters. https://www.ballet.org.uk/people/erina-takahashi/ https://www.ballet.org.uk/people/james-streeter/ Gerald Dowler, the dance writer and critic who has often interviewed for the LBC, will be the host in what promises to be an illuminating conversation.

The Zoom link remains the same, LBC members are being notified individually and the notice on the screen when people 'arrive' will give the correct time.

alison Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 It should still be 30 minutes, as far as I know. Could be that your original timestamp is inaccurate, which is something I find happens occasionally, e.g. the site will still claim you posted "just now/2 mins ago" when it's actually 5 or more minutes ago.

Maybe Adam has been affected by the latest restrictions in Bavaria.
