Buvoli getting SPF!! Surely a lock for First Soloist now?
Probably, but I more see Acri in Don Q as a major indication he’s going up to principal.

European/American Dance Companies Asks
Tumblr media
As it seems from the website, Francesca Hayward was promoted to a principal in 2016. However, she made her debut as O/O in Swan Lake last season. Why did it took her so long to be given that role?
Listen, not every company is like the Bolshoi, where you just show up and are given O/O willy nilly. I jest, but first of all, there’s simply not always enough shows for every principal to get one and there also not always enough time for countless casts to be rehearsed. Although to be fair, ROH do prep quite a lot of casts. They do SL frequently of course, and while I’m unsure if she had any injuries that caused her to miss out on an earlier seasons’ run, I’m quite confident that her participation in CATS certainly could have delayed it a season or two depending on her schedule and form. 
Thoughts on Elisabeth Beyer? I found her incredible... wish to see her dancing in the ROH or the Dutch National or the Staatsballet in Berlin
She’s very exciting and is finally in the main company corps as of this June! Hopefully she’ll start getting more opportunities soon!
Do you have promotion predictions for the Royal Ballet or ABT this year?
ABT: Carols Gonzales and Fangqi Li have the roles to make a push this Met Season. I  also think Jake Roxander’s potential is very high but he’s very young but Jaffe is not McKenzie. I  would also like to see Zimmi Coker out of the corps. I would be shocked if anyone goes to principal, they could use another guy but I’m not sure they’ve got one ready just yet.
ROH: I think Not promoting Daichi Ikarachi would be crazy, especially after wining the Eric Bruhn Prize. I know there’s a push for a new male principal, either Luca Acri or Joseph Sissons but I think someone has to retire, they just have too many. I am hoping for Annette Buvolli and Mariko Sasaki to be first soloists and I think Sae Maeda and Joonhyuk Jun should be soloists. Yu Hang to first artists as well. ROH is so difficult, there are so many talented people. 
Thoughts on Alina Cojocaru?
An angel sent from heaven. She’s never allowed to retire- I don’t make the rules. 
Do you know if Madison Penney is in a company? She graduated from Royal Ballet School in 2022, in a seemingly high position, having danced Raymonda in the grad performances. I would find it strange if she wasn’t hired by the royal but there seems to be no indication of a company on her instagram?
Getting into the Royal is no cakewalk, they not only have to compete with the graduates but also the prix prize winners. I thought I remembered her going to BRB? But she’s not on the site. I don’t really keep up with her.

Thoughts on next RB promotions?
I feel more unsure this year about my thoughts than I have in awhile. Most of the people I thought would go all the way up have/have been recently promoted, so I'm not fully sure.
I can see Luca Acri, Nicol Edmonds, or James Hay going up, in that order. I'd like it to be Sissens but I think he will grow as a first soloist for a few more years.
Will they replace Morera? I'm more inclined to say no. They historically have liked to have equal numbers of male and female principals. Promoting one of the men above and not filling in Morera's place would get them back to that. Plus, I can't really see any of the current female first soloists going up. Choe is too old, Calvert is pregnant, I don't think it could be Hinkis or Mendizabal based on their role history and frankly, talent. The only one who MIGHT go up would be Hamilton, but she's been a first soloist for far too long and, IMO, just doesn't have the star power to be a principal. Unfortunately, the crop of upcoming male talent is much more promising than female talent currently.
Others I see going up this year:
Sasaki, Buvoli, and maybe Ella to first soloists (esp. Sasaki). I'm also scared they might promote Storm-Jensen.
I would be shocked if Jun and Maeda didn't go up to soloists. Maybe also Emerton, Bradbury, and Stock.
Ikarashi will almost certainly be promoted to first artist at least. I can also see Boswell, Park, and Townsend (if she ends up making that autumn fairy debut)

List of the dancers pictured above
Viola Pantuso as Alice
Luca Acri as Lewis Carroll/White Rabbit
Marianna Tsembenhoi as the Dormouse
Calvin Richardson as the Mad Hatter
Taisuke Nakao as the March Hare
Marcelino Sambé as Jack/Knave of Hearts
Claire Calvert as Mrs. Liddell/Queen of Hearts(you can see her in the back of the last picture trust me)
I tried to see if the ROH website had a cast list and while they do list people under the different dates, it’s only like 5 and they don’t specify what characters they play
