Jane Simpson Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 If you can access the BBC's iPlayer you can watch a long interview with Peter Wright, shown for the first time yesterday. I haven't watched all the way through yet but it is getting excellent feedback and there are some rare and luscious clips - some of the Class programme from 1964, with Lynn Seymour at the barre and Park, Gable, Dowell , Wells,,, also to be glimpsed, and an extract from Wright's production of Sleeping Beauty for the RB in 1970, including what must surely be the best awakening kiss ever and Ashton's 'awakening' pas de deux danced by Sibley and Dowell.

dirac Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 No time to click on the link right now but thank you for this, Jane. Not sure if I will be able to watch but it sounds like a treat.............. Link to comment
kbarber Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 whenever I try to click on BBC links they tell me they are not available outside the UK. Link to comment
volcanohunter Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 The iPlayer's geo-block is fairly easy to overcome. A free extension like the Hola Unblocker will do it, although in my opinion, subscribing to a proper VPN service is absolutely worth the investment to get pretty much unfettered access to the internet. The program is terrific, and the footage from Wright's RB production of Sleeping Beauty left me desperately longing to see more. Link to comment
