As if stepping between the pages of a treasured storybook, New Ballet’s Cinderella vividly delights audiences with the majesty of classical ballet, wrapped in the promise of “happily ever after,” and generously sprinkled with sparkling humor. Complete with a Fairy Godmother, a handsome prince and an unforgettable ball, Dalia Rawson’s staging, Prokofiev’s beloved score and stunning costumes and scenery make this production a delight for the whole family.
