Cinderella
Choreography by Alexei Ratmansky
Music by Sergei Prokofiev
Libretto by Nikolai Volkov
after motifs from the fairy tale by Charles Perrault
The fairy godmother. The stroke of
midnight. The glass slipper. Triumphantly returning to the Kennedy
Center after a series of sold-out performances in January, St.
Petersburg's Mariinsky Ballet performs Alexei Ratmansky's Cinderella.
Ratmansky's romantic and moving version, a contemporary take on the
classic fairy tale, blends tradition with innovation in a captivating
showcase of wit, charm, and bravura style, intensified by Prokofiev's
exquisite music. Filled with gorgeous pas de deux, endearing characters,
and countless magical moments, the production hits "just the right note
of wonder, timidity and excitement," (The New York Times) and offers grand ballet with a contemporary twist.
