Ian Macmillan Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Looks a bit on the large side for Ex Cathedra and that's not Jeffrey Skidmore in charge. A University group, perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anon2 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Anyone know who the choir is? Wondered if it's someone like ex cathedra In the BRB/Pandora advert? London Contemporary Voices choir according to BRB Facebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picturesinthefirelight Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I knew It wasn't Jeffrey (he taught at my husbands college 20 years ago) but I know ex cathedra has done things with brb in the past. But thanks for the info. Shame a Birmingham based group wasn't used but they were very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rutette Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 An advert of sorts I suppose where 2 3rd year students (Amy McEntee and Ruaridh Bisset) from Central School of Ballet performed at the London Palladium in Joshua Kane's A/W 2017 fashion show for London Fashion week.

Duck Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I guess I need to start by saying that I live very much at the edge of a conurbation over here, in a place where the countryside really takes over, where the trees are higher than the houses, where I wake up at dawn to a vivid chorus of songbirds, and where I often see woodpeckers and birds of prey during the day. So there I was, leaving a local supermarket this afternoon … when my eye caught what I thought was a familiar face in the window of a luggage shop on the other side of the street. A quick run towards it. The confirmation of what I saw left me stunned, open mouthed, my eyes wide open, too. A life-size cut out of Eric Underwood sitting on a – real - suitcase! I’d seen a couple of pictures of this on his public Instagram account (e.g., this one here https://www.instagram.com/p/BS1YwrYl_uJ/?taken-by=ericunderwood) … for the world of it, however, I would have never expected to see this here, all live and real, right in front of me. A score of pictures on my phone later … I think I need to walk past that shop rather frequently at the moment … she says, slightly embarrassed about her emotional reaction, wondering whether she'd seen the Royal Ballet a good few times too many, and apologetic for the length of this post just to provide a link to an advert. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pas de Quatre Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 It is lovely! Just the right touch, not overly sentimental - and what a dancer! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diandri Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Keep an eye out for Amazon's new Xmas advert with a ballet theme; the dancer is Tais Vinolo from France & she looked lovely dancing away to Queen's the Show Must Go On. Won't give anything more away, but it's lovely. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janite Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I love that some of the time she is dancing with "afro" hair, this was one of the things that was talked about about by Marcelino Sambe in the RA's Black History Month insight. Apologies if there is a better way to describe black hair, happy to be corrected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janite Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Thanks Sharon. Also very pleased to note, (from Dance Theatre of Harlem insta) that the dancer changed from pink tights to brown through the advert. It seems a positive message to Black and Brown dancers and audience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
