Disappointing that 3 out of 4 of the ballets have been screened before. Why no Onegin or some of the mixed programmes?

Ellen West (Head of Creative Studios and Digital Products) responded on 10 April 2014 at 10:02am

Dear Philip

Unfortunately we are unable to film Onegin due to rights restrictions - this is also the reason why the ballet has not been recorded for DVD. We have found that mixed programmes are a less attractive option for cinema audiences, although this does not mean that we won't try them again in future Seasons.

Since l discovered your magnificent cinema viewings l am trying to attend all your screanings. I am a Yorkshire pensioner on a limited income wanting to see as many quality productions as l am able to .Correlating the information on your web site can prove confusing. A calender listing all performances and repeats would enable me to achieve my goal more readily.

Here I was all excited to see "A Winters Tale" here tonight but it appears that the local theater is not broadcasting this production to us as previously announced here in Cary, NC, USA - we did enjoy an exquisite "Giselle" and "The Sleeping Beauty" (also glorious) recently. Can you explain why this broadcast became unavailable? Thank you for sharing your great productions of Opera & Ballet with the world. Sally

I Am very sad that my observations were thought too bad to publish. BUT if you can view the film on a big screen you might possibly agree.
SO, even without a public viewing , please can the wardrobe department at least be advised to use fabric that does not show up every drop of perspiration of a very talented leading lady, or at least suggest that she uses one of the long lasting antiperspirants available.
I still don't see why the two kings could not have been provide with trousers. The rest of the costumes were a delight to see, but the shiny tights do not do well on the large screen

Chris Shipman (Head of Brand Engagement and Social Media) responded on 1 May 2014 at 3:21pm

Hi Diana,

I've checked and your original comment was published, though it may have been delayed, such was the volume of comments coming through moderation.

We very much welcome all comments, including the constructively critical so please forgive the error, the delay wasn't at all to do with the content, rather the volume and the nature of a manual process.

Dear Diana
Have just seen your comment on the website. A clever camera director is the answer to you comments re perspiration etc. No amount of industrial strength antiperspirant could suppress the sweat that a theatre audience can't see, but a sensitive camera director can avoid shots that reveal too much! Food for thought

Also must I book a ticket? Or is it on a first come first serve basis? Particularly, I was interested in watching the Manon viewing at the Odeon Cinema Barnet.
Lastly, is this a live viewing with the dancers and the orchestra, or just the orchestra?

Many Thanks

Hi Abbeygail,

Cinema ticket prices are set by the venue, so do contact them to book. The screenings are popular so we'd recommend booking in advance.

It's a live relay of all production elements (ie. both the dancers and orchestra are live).

Were there transmission problems last night for Manon? We were in the cinema in Selles sur Cher, in France, and there was no performance. All we got was blue screen with "HDMI no signal" They had to refund our tickets, everyone very disappointed. Was this Europe wide, France wide or just our local cinema? The manager said he tried ringing (I don't know who) for support but there was no answer. Thanks for a reply.

Chris Shipman (Head of Brand Engagement and Social Media) responded on 17 October 2014 at 11:36am

Hi Sandra,

Apologies for this. We've been told by our technical team that this was due to circumstances beyond our control - specifically storms in France affecting the transmission. The cinema manager would have spoken to our technical team.

I hope this doesn't deter you from future relays, which hopefully will be less affected by the weather.

Manon was very beautiful last night. Too bad we didn't get to see all of it in Mass. We were watching the beginning scene and all of a sudden we were in the bedroom at the end of Act 1. We got to see all of the intermission though. The cinema was very pleasant and gave us free tickets. However, I think that your technical team needs to pay more attention. We lost 35 min of the perf. in the middle. That is not weather!

Certain venues do offer Encore, repeated screenings. Do check with your nearest cinema or consult http://www.roh.org.uk/cinema.

Thanks

Is there any chance to watch the ROH performances in Poland?

Thanks

Hi Jola,

At present we don't screen productions in Poland, though we're expanding all the time. Do check http://www.roh.org.uk/cinema again soon

Thanks

Chris

I hope you find a distributor in Poland soon and many Polish opera fans would have a possibility to watch the ROH performances in cinemas.
I saw "Manon Lescaut" in Kielce.

Are there any operas going to be shown in the US ? The distributors that used to show some, no longer do. I have been so disappointed. The last one shown here was Manon Lescaut in Aug 2014. Since then, there have been no operas from ROH. A couple ballets from ROH but no opera. Are there any distributors looking at this ? Live isn't necessary since there is the time difference, just show the recording !
Thanks,
Marie

I feel your pain Marie, Quebec has been abandoned too thanks to Cineplex dropping their screenings last year.

Hi Clare,

We do regularly add territories and distributors change, so it's worth checking back.

Thanks

Please can you let me know if there will be a repeat of Swan Lake in the UK. My daughter would love to see it but is too young to stay up for the live performance! Thank you.

Chris Shipman (Head of Brand Engagement and Social Media) responded on 12 March 2015 at 1:07pm

Hi Anna,

Yes, select UK cinemas will be screening 'Encore' repeats of the performance. If you search for the cinemas nearest you at http://www.roh.org.uk/showings/swan-lake-live-2015, if they're offering a second screening, this will appear.

Thanks,

Chris

Magnificent performance of swan lake but why does the Encore showing have to have the overlong intervals, backstage showing the nitty gritty and long interviews as time fillers. Also having commercials of other ballets is rather disconcerting. Surely if one buys the DVD you don't get all this in the middle of the ballet. You could give the audience the choice to watch these extras by showing them at the end. I had to rush away before the end to catch my train which completely spoilt this wonderful productio

I love the opportunity of seeing the Royal Ballet Live in cinema and have seen most performances. I dislike the intimate close ups that would not be part of the experience in the Royal Opera House. The screen audience are deprived of the view of the whole stage for long passages often missing the corps de ballet. Full head shots of sweaty faces and mimed expressions do not add to the experience. You seem to be doing more and more close ups. Yesterday's La Fille Mal Gardee was full of them. Please give us more authentic full stage views.

Clare responded on 2 June 2015 at 12:08am

Excellent comment Joy, I want my experience to be exactly like I was in the theatre when the performance occurred.

Lovely La Boheme production seen at The Brunton, Musselburgh last night - but no subtitles. Is this ROH policy or something I should take up with the Brunton Theatre?

Ellen West (Head of Creative Studios and Digital Products) responded on 11 June 2015 at 1:10pm

Dear Jane

There certainly should have been subtitles - thank you for letting us know, we will discuss with the cinema.

Best wishes

Hi,

Can you please give me the name and contact details of the company that is filming ROH productions for you ?

I would like to get in touch with them regarding a similar project.

Many thanks.

Regards,

Fabian Ouchterlony

Chris Shipman (Head of Brand Engagement and Social Media) responded on 24 June 2015 at 12:42pm

Hi Fabian,

Our productions are filmed in house - we have an in house production team that oversee all of our cinema relays, live streams and DVD/Blu-Ray recordings.

Thanks

Habitant près de Montpellier, en France, l'an dernier je pouvais voir et entendre les retransmissions du ROH au cinéma CGR de Lattes.
Cette année je me suis rendu en vain à la première retransmission : ce cinéma ne diffuse plus les retransmissions du ROH. Où puis-je me rendre, à proximité de Montpellier ?
Merci d'avance de votre réponse.

Sarah Walsh (Cinema Account Coordinator) responded on 5 November 2015 at 12:36pm

Cher Gérard,

Malheureusement, il n’y a pas des retransmissions à proximité de Montpellier cet an. Il y a un cinema à Toulouse, ABC Cinema, et un autre à Avignon, Cinema Rivoli, mais en ce moment ces deux cinemas sont les plus proche de vous.

Please could you let me know how I find what is showing in Los Angeles and at which cinemas. Thanks

Sarah Walsh (Cinema Account Coordinator) responded on 9 November 2015 at 9:38am

Dear Jan,

If you input your post code into the search bar on our cinema website a map will appear showing you the cinemas screening our broadcasts. Here is the search I completed for Los Angeles - http://www.roh.org.uk/search/screenings?location=Los+Angeles%2C+CA%2C+USA

Each red marker is a cinema screening our broadcasts and by clicking on the markers you'll get more information such as the cinema's address, as well as screening times and dates.

Best wishes,

Sarah

I guess you never found another Canadian distributor? :-( There is never anything shown here in Quebec.

Clare responded on 1 December 2015 at 5:50pm Reply

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG, I tell a lie, Cineplex have seen sense and are screening you again, Yippee *happy dance*

Edy H responded on 13 February 2016 at 3:50am Reply

NEVER AGAIN! The films are so poorly done! Not all dancers on stage shown. Entrances and exits not shown. Feet not shown, repeatedly. What is a ballet without the feet??? Irrelevent close-ups. Wayyyyy to many cuts.
