The Royal Opera House is delighted to continue its #OurHouseToYourHouse programme, featuring online broadcasts that can be accessed by audiences around the world.
Join us on Friday 16 April at 7pm GMT for a FREE stream of a very special Insight from 2016 celebrating The Sleeping Beauty. Former Director of The Royal Ballet Monica Mason and Christopher Newton join Director Kevin O’Hare in discussion about their restaging of the production that reopened the Royal Opera house in 1946 after World War II and this year celebrates its 75th anniversary. The Insight also offers a glimpse into rehearsals taken by Monica Mason and Samantha Raine with Olivia Cowley, Kristen McNally, Tierney Heap and Anna Rose O’Sullivan. The stream culminates in an additional treat with an excerpt from the 2020 cinema recording of Marianela Nunez in the role of Princess Aurora dancing with Vadim Muntagirov as Prince Florimund.
Titles currently available to view via stream.roh.org.uk include:
The Dream (The Royal Ballet 2017), Symphonic Variations (The Royal Ballet 2017), Concerto (The Royal Ballet 2021) and Seven Deadly Sins / Mahagonny Songspiel (Royal Opera 2021).
