capybara Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Oh, WOW. I've only just got round to looking at today's papers and The Times has a two page spread about Marianela Nunez. The cover of 2Arts carries a full page picture of her headed Marianela Nunez - The Best Ballerina in Britain (and that's official). I seem to have missed a reference in the article to explain how "it's official". But the lovely news is that, on February 1st (at her second Giselle), there will be a flower throw and speeches to honour her 20 years with the Royal Ballet. Kevin O'Hare is quoted as saying that dancers should be celebrated at the peak of their careers. Well done, Kevin! Can't wait for that performance: it will be something special. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alison Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 How lovely for her. Can't help thinking of all the other long-serving principals who never got such a thing, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capybara Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 (edited) Today (Sunday 18th March) The Sunday Times Culture section has an article about Matthew Ball and the back of the Business and Money section features Lauren Cuthbertson. In the main part of the paper, there is a large picture of Darcey Bussell who is advocating more exercise for children Ian Macmillan has listed Ball and Bussell in Links but I thought that I should mention all three as I know that people on here sometimes like to go out and the buy the paper. Three ballet-related pieces in one newspaper in one day is pretty good going. Edited March 18, 2018 by capybara amendment 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Macmillan Posted March 18, 2018 Author Share Posted March 18, 2018 Indeed, you're quite right. Our paper didn't arrive till after I'd finished Links and I hadn't thought to look at the Business/Money supplement online. So here we are on Lauren and her finances: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/lauren-cuthbertson-i-want-to-be-comfy-so-i-have-to-stay-on-my-toes-l23kjdh6m?shareToken=b3d320dea661d75aba6f3449f67076e6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Macmillan Posted June 7, 2018 Author Share Posted June 7, 2018 Yesterday's Links included a RDB/NYCB review by Debra Craine, published online in the Times 2 section, under a First Night heading. Out of interest, did anyone see it in a printed edition yesterday or this morning? There has been no sign of it in the editions delivered here.

Ian Macmillan Posted July 5, 2018 Author Share Posted July 5, 2018 For a moment I thought that today's Dance picture - No 4 here - was of one of the Royal Ballet ladies, till I realised they don't go to Madrid till later this month. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/news-in-pictures-thursday-july5-2018-7n9hkgxs5?shareToken=63f1f75fba108b3afdc89716b8f6bf1b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Macmillan Posted September 7, 2018 Author Share Posted September 7, 2018 Today's Times 2 supplement leads with a cover and 2-page spread on Natalia Osipova headlined ".. on the trials of being a Russian in London." She talks to Debra Craine about "cruel jibes, body image and her new show, Pure Dance," Unfortunately, and a little unusually, there's no Share Token to get behind the paywall.
