Slightly surprised to see McRae being cast for the Prodigal Son - this sounds very hopeful considering the comments that his injury was quite serious. (If it turns out to be true it’s of course great he would recover so quickly but I feel that this casting is likely going to change, although if he can dance it I’ll be very impressed!) I hope he is recovering and can dance it. I love watching him and was gutted he was injured. If the casting doesn't change, I'd have a difficult choice whether to book for that cast or for the Sambe / Heap casting as I love them both. Tough decisions 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greypuss Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 I would be very surprised to see McRae back at all this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But casting him in something which might be manageable is good psychology and absolutely the right thing for Kevin O'Hare to have done (even though he has not given the Prodigal Son to three dancers I was hoping to see in it).

Nothing against the dancers who are cast and I appreciate that there are not enough performances to go round but I think that (in alphabetical order): Ball, Bracewell, Corrales and Muntagirov are, in their very different ways, made for the role. So it's 4, not 3!!!!! But, actually, there are many others who would also be wonderful. I have a feeling that at least one of the four I have named will be a 'cover' and could end up replacing McRae. But I am straying into speculation. Edited November 26, 2019 by capybara 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's currently scheduled to be back for the 18th & 20th December triple bill matinees doing the 3rd movement of Concerto. So, assuming she makes it, that'll be about a year off?

I have a note of a 'Heritage' programme in the Linbury with BRB 14-19 May 2020. Is it not now happening or are my dates wrong?

Thanks, Lizbie1. I remember now that one of the reasons I was confused was because there's a Dante Project performance on 14th May so it didn't seem likely the company would also be doing a programme in the Linbury. I suppose the Heritage programme won't involve many dancers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I did get tickets for a Linbury programme last year (I'm a Friend which I suppose helped), but then wished I hadn't because of the appalling sightlines. So even if tickets were available I'd have to see how much they are for seats from which you can actually see anything. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard LH Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 The first night of the Dante Project (as yet only partially cast) on 02 April currently has no "package" tickets available in the Stalls Circle or Orchestra Stalls.

It’s worth noting that this is a big occasion for the musical as well as ballet world and I imagine a lot of the best tickets have been held back for sponsors etc. There are currently 2 SC seats left, 4 in the GT, 20 in the balcony but lots in the Amphitheatre (comfortably half, I’d say).

I was told that this is because there are going to be lots of video projections, etc., and they aren't sure yet where they are going to come from and therefore where all the cameras are going to be.

bangorballetboy Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 The following description for the Heritage bill now appears on the website: "The Royal Ballet celebrates its unique heritage through works and choreographers who have shaped the Company's history. Heritage brings alive the legacy of these choreographers, presenting works by Ninette de Valois, Frederick Ashton and Kenneth MacMillan performed in the intimacy of the Linbury Theatre by The Royal Ballet and guest companies. The Royal Ballet celebrate the rich British contribution to the international ballet repertory. These performances are complemented by a programme of insights and film screenings." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if this is new info (apologies if not), but the bill consists of Solos from Job (RB), Dante Sonata (BRB), Sea of Troubles (Yorke Dance Project) and Valses nobles et sentimentales (RB). I imagine it will be very difficult to get tickets for this since it's in the Linbury and there are only a few performances. But it sounds exciting!
