Big shout out to Watermans
Cracking night at Watermans Arts Centre last night for the Royal Opera House performance of "Nutcracker" ballet - beamed live to us on the cinema screen. I should think alot of hard work went into making that broadcast happen for us. Darcey Bussell treated us audience to behind the scenes rehearsal video footage - and her interviews with the dancers and we got to see backstage after the finale while the dancers waited for the call to take their bows - you wouldnt see any of that in the actual opera house audience. The show was dazzling, the leading lady "the sugar plum fairy" was given more bouquets than she could hold at the end, she swept to the floor hand on her heart to take the final curtseys while her handsome prince applauded her with us. Just impossibly glamorous ! Thank you so much Watermans for this christmas treat.
