Yes, on the Today programme at about 8.25am. Once again, BRB is first to the pass with the media - there are, of course, two other adapted Nutcrackers in town!

SheilaC Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 I'm confused ( a frequent state!). The streaming is advertised as available for 7 days. But when I bought my ticket I got a message that it would be available for 3 days after my first viewing. Has any one else had a similar message?

alison Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Both could be possible, I suppose: accessible over the whole week, but your ticket is only valid for 3 consecutive days? Like some other company's, which only allowed you 48 hours from purchase or redemption. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that, after seeing hundreds of Nuts cracked , snowflakes falling, trees grown, fairies sugared, and Princes be-wigged, I might have developed a slight blind spot where this ballet is concerned. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninamargaret Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Is this being streamed by Vimeo? If so, I wonder if they will have the same problems as the ROH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulcinella Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 It's being streamed using TicketCo TV which I haven't come across before but it can be streamed on a TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
