MAX Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) Comments to replace the moments that are "uniquely by Scarlett". The situation is already very sad and I think this artist does not merit more bashing.... Edited March 29, 2020 by MAX 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan McNulty Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Just now, MAX said: Comments to replace the moments that are "uniquely by Scarlett". Why? As ties between him and the RB have been cut to the extent that RB have stated that (and I appreciate the performances are extremely unlikely to happen) Symphonic Dances has been pulled from the mixed programme in June. If the company is intent on removing all his work then Swan Lake falls into that category too. I would guess the company invested too much money in it to jettison it for an entirely new production but possibly (rather than shelving it altogether) excising his unique interpolations and replacing them with something else is more feasible. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the RB isn't going to be staging his works, which currently seems likely, then they have got a problem. Most traditional Swan Lakes have approximately the same Act 2 and parts of Act 3 and even some parts of Act 1. Other interpolations are always being changed, taken out (or even restored). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAX Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Yes we are not talking about the same thing, I talk about Scarlett, the person, the human being, you talk about The Royal Opera House, productions and money. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking about the situation at the ROH. They have got a problem if they do not want to perform his works and presumably they will have to do something about it. Liam Scarlett has maintained total silence on the whole issue but perhaps, links having been cut between him and ROH, he no longer wants them to use his works? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saki Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 (edited) Someone on Twitter has noticed that all mention of Scarlett has been removed from the History page on the ROH website. The archived version is on the right. Edited March 30, 2020 by saki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
