helpful tip from fso's bonaventura: all upcoming numbers to be performed by Alina as Lyudmila with time stamps:

"The music and the timing of the numbers are unlikely to change. Of course, Lyudmila's part will include spins and other beautiful elements of women's single skating:
All numbers of Alina-Lyudmila (time codes for this recording):
3.36 - 4.33 Lyudmila and Ruslan at the feast
8.30 - 14.41 Lyudmila and Ruslan after the feast, lyrical number
(12.45 - 14.41 air number - in the end Chernomor takes Lyudmila away (it was not for nothing that Alina tried to "fly" at rehearsals in the Sleeping Beauty last winter)
28.35 - 31.20 Lyudmila in a dress a la Bayadere, solo
31.23 - 34.00 Chernomor gives gifts to Lyudmila (purely acting episode, without skating
34.06 - 36.50 Lyudmila dances, "playing" "Kalinka" on balalaika, Chernomor dances until he drops exhausted)
54.11 - 56.36 - Lyudmila dances in an invisible hat (the hat is something like a glowing jellyfish), then scenes with the imaginary Ruslan on the screen, where Chernomor bewitches the princess
1.24.13 - 1.27.07 Lyudmila and Ruslan, lyrical number (finale, as in "The Nutcracker", when the heroes are raised above the crowd)
1.27.07 - 1.30.05 - Lyudmila and Ruslan in the final group dance"

 
Thank God we have Navka so much content. I liked the white dress more but the other one has its ethnic touches too. Great stuff :love2:

Good atmosphere great people to work with.
 
And I'm happy that Alina will do the show till the end of September. We will have plenty of time to watch every part of it :love:. I hope our lovely cameraman will be in Sochi. Of course he will be.
 
That will be a funny show since it has already humoristic moments even in a promo video. Of course, it will have the necessary dramatism too. But in between (off screne), we will have a lot of funny moments.
 
You don’t have to watch it if you don’t like it. No one’s making you.
If she takes a job, it’s probably because she picked it for herself. I’m sure there’s an abundance of offers for her within Russia, if she chooses the role of Lyudmila, it’s probably because she likes it.
Since in Russia shows are primarily all-family kids-friendly activity, they tend to be fairytales/musicals most of the time. She’s not “packaged” by anyone, she takes on a role in a show, which is based on a story (poem). She can’t frivolously choose some “packaging” and make up her own self-made character, when the story is pre-written by Pushkin hundreds of years ago.

Alina seems to get along really well with Navka and if we know anything about Alina, it's that she is unbelievably loyal so we will probably see her in a Navka show once a year.

The "packaged" part referred to Gleich who has mostly given her slow exhibition numbers even though Alina does have a fighter soul (which is why I dislike the princess parts where she is basically sitting around, waiting to be rescued but you are right, that's what the poems offer and what families want to see meaning that's what makes money).

*All of the above is MY opinion before anybody criticises me for disrespecting Alina's decision making.

I fully get that she probably wants to strike while the iron is still hot. In about 2-3 years the 2022 OGM will have retired and become the new face of ice shows in Russia so that's just smart on her part. And you are absolutely right in saying that I don't have to watch the shows, however, that doesn't mean that I am not allowed to wish for something else (I mean, there are still people who believe she will return to competition so I should be allowed to want to see her in other productions...).

I also love that her age is mentioned as if she wasn't just eighteen (emphasis on the "teen" part) less than a month ago. I am in my mid-twenties and still make wrong decisions but 19 is the new 90 apparently :shrug:.
I am aware of her age and that she can marry whoever, participate in however many shows etc. Doesn't mean that I cant think its a lot on her seeing as she will not only have to perform but be part of autograph sessions as well. 3 months performing means more cash than just 4 weeks, but I really hope she will get to relax at some point.
