Since this time, the Conservatoire central office has liaised closely with all of its Member Schools to ensure students are not unduly disadvantaged by measures taken, to guarantee that support and good practice can be shared across all Schools, and ensure that the Conservatoire is meeting its obligations with regard to the Office for Students’ requirements. The Covid19 pandemic has required all of our Schools to take emergency measures to deliver the courses of study online. As government restrictions ease, Schools may resume on-site delivery partially and/or fully, depending on the requirements they must fulfil to ensure the safety of all students and staff. However, should the government re-impose a more severe level of restrictions, this may force Schools to adjust their delivery again, meaning the delivery of your course may need to partially or fully be online. Changes to how Conservatoire courses of study have previously been delivered in Member Schools prior to March 2020 are rigorously consulted upon and reviewed by the Conservatoire Learning, Teaching and Quality Assurance Committee, and by the External Examiner for each course. These bodies ensure that the quality of delivery meets the appropriate standards and that there is independent oversight of proposed changes.

After the group describes how they assign names to each cat in the tribe, they assemble in preparation to take part in the annual festival of cat-dom...they send out invitations to attend the Jellicle Ball! At the Ball, each cat tries to prove to Old Deuteronomy (the leader of the Jellicle tribe) why he or she deserves to go the Heavyside Layer – a heavenly feline afterlife. Munkustrap, the show’s feline narrator, introduces the cats one by one starting with Jennyanydots. The Rum Tum Tugger, the wild and inconstant Elvis-esque cat, interrupts her presentation with his grand entrance; he feels no obligation to other cats and does as he feels. Following Tugger’s exuberant performance, the old and greying Grizabella makes her way through the group causing the tribe to scatter. The other cats dislike the lowly Grizabella and somberly sing of her sad state. As Grizabella sulks off into the night, the fat and renowned Bustopher Jones sings of his elite status among his fellow cats.

  • Nutcracker Receives a New Look
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NUTCRACKER RECEIVES A NEW LOOK Houston Ballet’s logo for The Nutcracker receives a new look HOUSTON, TEXAS [May 2016] Houston Ballet, America’s fifth largest ballet company, unveiled the first phase of a marketing plan for Artistic Director Stanton Welch’s new production of The Nutcracker which premieres on November 25, 2016. To build upon the anticipation and excitement surrounding the upcoming production Houston Ballet’s marketing team has devised a unique three-phase brand campaign to introduce audiences to the new look and feel of the ballet. As the company continues to build and create The Nutcracker in the coming months, the new brand campaign will show the logo for the ballet transforming and growing in three phases. For the first phase, a simple sketch of the Nutcracker, the ballet’s namesake, will appear. In the second phase the sketch will become more detailed and embellished until it appears as a fully finished illustration in the marketing campaign’s third, and final, phase. The icon illustration for The Nutcracker was created by the ballet’s designer Tim Goodchild and will appear on all marketing and advertising collateral. “We saw an opportunity to market The Nutcracker in way that’s different and exciting,” said Christian Brown, Houston Ballet’s Director of Marketing and PR. “This campaign gives us a chance to showcase the extraordinary design work by Mr. Goodchild and build on the sense of anticipation surrounding the production. Our hope is that the Houston community will journey with us as we create the show and see the evolution of logo as a reflection of that progress.” Mr.
