The Cinderella by the founder of the Royal Ballet, the choreographer Frederick Ashton, celebrates its 75th anniversary this season. The ballet's opening night in 1948, with Moira Shearer and Michael Somes in the lead roles, was enthusiastically received.
After more than a decade away from the Royal Opera House stage, Ashton's timeless reworking of Charles Perrault's famous story returns, showing the choreographer's deft musicianship and the transcendent beauty of Prokofiev's score.
A creative team immersed in the magic of theatre, cinema, dance and opera brings a new atmosphere to Cinderella's ethereal world of fairy godmothers and pumpkin carriages, handsome princes and true love.
