This is Sergei Prokofiev’s ballet in the best ever version which has enjoyed enduring popularity at the famous Royal Ballet in London for many years. It is a show for entire families and ever new generations. Grown-ups drink in the beauty of English-style classical dance and the powerful dose of satire with which Sir Frederick Ashton treats the two evil stepsisters (danced by men!). Special emotions are always felt by children as they excitedly follow the changing fortunes of Cinderella in the fairy-tale costumes and sets by the Dutch designer Toer van Schayk. We know how the story ends, but we enjoy revisiting it, especially when the storyteller is Sir Frederick Ashton - a great master of ballet narrative, a man with an extraordinary sense of elegance and humour, the greatest British choreographer of the 20th century. This is exactly the production that Wendy Ellis Somes, former star of the Royal Ballet, left us when she staged Sir Frederick Ashton’s choreography with the Polish National Ballet. Our company’s soloists add lustre to any performance with their beautiful dancing and acting talent.
