capybara Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Kevin O'Hare came out to explain that a number of dancers were having to self-isolate and that adjustments had been necessary for Anemoi and fewer guests than usual would be attending Aurora's wedding. The audience would not have realised so kudos to those who had to adapt to the circumstances. Feeling so sorry for the dancers affected............ 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alison Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 And they appeared to have been doing so well, bubble-wise (as far as we could tell ) What a shame. I suppose it's too much to hope for that the self-isolation started some time ago, and so is nearly at an end? BTW, what are the current self-isolation rules? Is it still 10 days, or is it now less if you take a test which proves negative? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it still 10 days, or is it now less if you take a test which proves negative? You usually have to self-isolate for 10 full days if you've tested positive for coronavirus (COVID-19) or have been in close contact with someone who has it. You might need to self-isolate for longer if you get symptoms or your symptoms do not go away.

If one bubble has to self-isolate the others would not be affected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I felt that Kevin was implying that the issue arose on Friday (25th) but I might have misheard him as the reproduction wasn't great where I was sitting. He certainly said that the adaptations to Anemoi had needed to be last-minute ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were very late changes to the General Rehearsal (11:30 on Friday) casting for Anemoi and for Sleeping Beauty just the divertissements were rehearsed. I think the casting was only available just before curtain up so I guess most of the audience scanned the cast sheet during the first interval - I certainly did. Doors to the auditorium were opened about 11:25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FionaM Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 (edited) I do wish they would say if a dancer is injured or isolating. Injury even minor ones could imply a long time away from the stage. Edited July 4, 2021 by FionaE Clarification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FionaM Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Ah elsewhere it says Valentino had a minor accident with his bike and had been advised to rest … which presumably necessitated the domino effect seen in the casting change. Good to know it is only one person affected and that it is likely very minor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that Taisuke Nakao is telling everyone about the situation on his Instagram posts. 2 minutes ago, FionaE said: Ah elsewhere it says Valentino had a minor accident with his bike and had been advised to rest … which presumably necessitated the domino effect seen in the casting change. Kevin O'Hare explained the 'knock on' effect of Valentino's accident in his 'front of curtain' announcement on Friday. He always comes out if a Principal's appearance is affected - in this case two (plus two 'about-to-bes'). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballers tell the public through their employers. If there is a personal reason for not performing (Eg early stages of pregnancy say) then the dancer/employer can say ill until they are ready to share that info.

FionaM Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Also I agree with Taisuke letting people know he is isolating. The more openness there is, then the less stigma there will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FionaM Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 And in any event in this case there has been total openness from KoH and Valentino (presumably they agreed what would be said) and also personally from Taisuke.

alison Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 I rather think that you can't make that sort of blanket statement about professional sportspeople. I'm aware of plenty who haven't - or who have at the very least understated the situation, and may even have been "economical with the truth" on occasions. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
