Linnzi5 Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 Just now, PeterS said: You could always return one of the others…. I did. I returned Anemoi/The Cellist as I only bought the ticket as it was reduced and really I don't want to see either. So, it's a win for me. I must stress that I am very sorry for Steven and Anna Rose and for those looking forward to their performance. It is very disappointing for so many and especially for the two principals who can't now perform Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the autistic spectrum & the idea of a relaxed performance makes me shudder! What I want is "uptight" performances where everyone sits still & shuts up throughout! And puts their mobile phone away before each act starts! Love the concept Very sorry for Steven, and for Anna Rose, but I guess it's better to be safe than sorry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Perregrino Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 Am disappointed for Steven and hope he recovers fully and swiftly. Am gutted for Anna-Rose. She is such a unique dancer and is so rarely onstage anymore that these Kitri performances were a real treat to savour. 3 becomes 1 1/2. They were appearances to treasure. Hopefully she’ll get plenty of chances to dance in 2024. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiari Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 It sounds very serious. I'm very sorry for Steven, he is extremely unlucky! He seems to go from serious injury to serious injury with little "ok time" in the middle. Also sorry for Anna Rose but wishing the best to William and Fumi for their surprise performance. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinMM Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Yes depending on how bad can be anything from 3-9 months to recover from. But think he has had an operation on his knee before so if it’s the same one it’s likely to be on the longer side. Poor Steven must be so depressing for him. Let’s hope for him it’s sooner rather than later. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alison Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 I can't find a specific non-casting thread, so will put this here, but if anyone's feeling rich there are some returns for pre-Christmas Nutcrackers on the ROH website. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capybara Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Mayara Magri has said on IG that 'her' cast will be dancing The Cellist General Rehearsal on Friday.

Cescablue Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Just returning from the General Rehearsal this afternoon. Is there are thread for Anemoi/The Cellist yet?

JohnS Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I think Fumi Kaneko is only dancing Beatrice this time - not sure which cast. I’m hoping Olivia Cowley will reprise her spine-chilling Devil. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
art_enthusiast Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I really want to know who the young Dante and young Beatrice will be as well - I think last time this information wasn't provided beforehand though. Only Virgil, Dante and older Beatrice I believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to know for the Hirano cast It would be nice if ROH could update the casting on their booking website in a more timely manner or at least post the casting on their social media first if that’s easier. Kaneko and Bracewell already announced that they will dance Beatrice and Dante with each other on the World Ballet Day broadcast when they did a rehearsal of the pas de deux during the livestream, so it’s clearly official. They can always put “To be confirmed” if there are dates they are not sure of. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinMM Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 I was just looking up Nutcracker performances and see that Steven McRae is cast as dancing in this. Does that mean he is recovering well from his recent knee injury or have they just not announced a replacement yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven had his op during the last week and is now posting reels of himself doing strengthening exercises on IG. Maybe it was thought tactful or beneficial to his mindset not to name a replacement too quickly; but there would seem to be no way of him dancing again any time soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawnstar Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 The anticipated Nutcracker cast change is now on the ROH website. (Yes, I have been checking every day since McRae's injury, as I'm going to this performance!) I was expecting it would probably be Hirano & sure enough it is. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capybara Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 So Hirano has become, I think, the most used of the RB male Principals this season: 3 Espadas 3 Dantes now 4 Nutcracker Princes 4 Lescauts now 2 Des Grieux It must feel awful for Steven McRae when substitutions get announced. All good wishes to him with his ACL recovery. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
