My First Ballet: Cinderella
Overview
Booking for the National Tour of My First Ballet: Cinderella opens from 25 September.
Meet the nature-loving Cinderella, who lives on the edge of an enchanted forest where she once gardened and sang with her mother. After loss and silence settle over her home, she’s left with a sharp-tongued stepmother, two noisy stepsisters, and a house full of chores and shadows.
But when a letter arrives, inviting all to a Garden Ball, Cinderella’s journey to find her true self begins – guided by the spirit of her mother and the magic of the forest.
With a narrator to help the young audience follow the story, and a shortened, recorded version of Prokofiev’s ravishing score, this is the perfect introduction to ballet, and a fantastic family day out.
This new production by English National Ballet is choreographed by George Williamson and performed by students of the English National Ballet School Graduate Artists Programme.
