I had tickets to see Red Shoes live but, Covid put a stop to that. However, I have just watched the recording I made when it was on tv over Christmas. Wow! It was wonderful. Anybody else see it?

I have seen several of his productions live and was very sad to hear, early last year, that this is to be his last

I saw Red Shoes live when it came to our local theatre some time ago and I thought it was wonderful. I got a ticket to see it again last year, but of course it was cancelled because of the lockdown and I was thrilled that that it was on t.v. recently, so I enjoyed it all over again.

Saw it at Norwich Theatre Royal. All his ballets are brilliant and I’m not a particular ballet fan.
I went to his production of Edward Scissorhands with a friend.
I didn’t want to go, it was a horrible night, and I didn’t like the film, thought I didn’t like ballet.
I was wrong. All his productions have been amazing.

Yes I saw it in Liverpool. Stunning. The scenery and effects were wonderful. The train !
I love his work.

I saw it just before Christmas '98 at the Lowrie in Salford. It was riveting. I could have watched it all over again, though I missed it on TV.

DD and I went to see The Red Shoes a couple of years ago and loved it. Sky Arts showed Swan Lake over the holiday as well.
