Jan McNulty Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 First-time post, just to say how lovely it is to see Romany Pajdak being given an opportunity in the Brahms Waltzes. The ROH booking page for the Ashton bill obviously hasn't caught up yet though - Cuthbertson is still listed for all performances. Hello Booklover89 and welcome out of the lurking shadows! We look forward to hearing more from you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacqueline Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) I see the casting for the Brandstrup & co. matinee is up now. Good news for me, a number of my favourites in there. Still lots of unsold seats. I wonder when we can expect the discounts/special offers to commence. As for the performance, can anyone advise as to the running time. I would guess it will be three 'shorts' and two intervals. I am glad it at least starts at a reasonable 2pm but when does it finish? It would be helpful to know with regards to booking transport. Thanks in advance. Edited October 22, 2014 by Jacqueline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capybara Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 There seems to be a man missing from the second SV cast. Does anyone know who it is? Zuchetti is missing from one version of the listing for tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebird Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) There seems to be a man missing from the second SV. Does anyone know who it is? Valentino Zucchetti has been left off the list of dancers for Symphonic Variations on the mixed bill production page for today's performance. This may be because his name appears earlier in the list as a Principal in Scènes de Ballet. If you go to the page for today's performance you'll find him listed for Symphonic Variations.

Bluebird Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Marianela Nuñez is to replace Fumi Kaneko in two performances of Don Q in January.

Bluebird Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) Just noticed there has also been a cast change for Ceremony of Innocence Deirdre Chapman and Bennet Gartside to replace Christina Arestis and Edward Watson in two performances (November 14 and 17). http://www.roh.org.uk/news/cast-change-deirdre-chapman-and-bennet-gartside-to-dance-in-ceremony-of-innocence-on-14-and-17-november-2014 Edited November 4, 2014 by Bluebird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesrhblack Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 That's a shame for Fumi. Was just thinking hadn't seen Deirdre Chapman (who I like very much) for a long time so I'm pleased she is still being cast... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capybara Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 So sorry for Fumi and so sorry not to be seeing her in the upcoming run of Don Q after all. Not best pleased about the cast change for Ceremony of Innocence as one purchases tickets quite carefully in order to catch both casts and then,,,,,,,!!!!!

capybara Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Wasn't Fumi injured during the last run of Don Q? Yes, she was centre stage in Act 1 of her second performance and what she did looked so minor at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lyn Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Shame about Cuthbertson. Get a bit fed up with Lamb always being the cover for injured dancers. There are others. Especially because it might increase her own risk of injury! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zxDaveM Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Shame about Cuthbertson. Get a bit fed up with Lamb always being the cover for injured dancers. There are others. ?? Helen Crawford/Romany Pajdak replaced Lauren in Brahms Waltzes; Olivia Cowley in Cassandra, and Yuhui in one of the four Alice's. And besides, Sarah is a fabulous dancer, I'd say one of the RB's finest. That she can stand in, sometimes at the last moment, is a testament to her vast talent. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but unfortunately there are only two Principals cast as Alice, and with a cinema broadcast I suppose the powers that be didn't want to put on anyone more junior. Lamb had the last broadcast too, didn't she? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
