ROH Spring 2007 Newsletter
Just received Royal Opera House's newsletter. Great design with what looks like helvetica font. It has a very dynamic layout, conveying ROH's efforts to update the establishment's identity.

Just one complaint. Partial to how books and magazines smell (what an odd person, you must be thinking), ROH is an assault to the olfactory. On ripping open the plastic wrapping, it literally puts one off browsing the newsletter. Simply imagine, a beautiful woman who smells of sweat. That's what the ROH newsletter is. Over time, the smell does mute.
Soldiering on past the smell, the programme for Spring looks spectacular. There's Apollo (George Balanchine), Children of Adam (World Premiere - Alastair Marriott) and Theme and Variations (George Balanchine). The other one is La Fin du Jour (Kenneth MacMillan), Pierrot Lunaire (Glen Tetley) and Seven Deadly Sins (World Premiere - Will Tuckett).
