The colorful and classic fairytale choreographed by North Carolina Dance Theatre President and Artistic Director Jean-Pierre Bonnefoux premiered in 2001 and was last performed for Charlotte audiences in 2006.
Set to Sergei Prokofiev’s score, Bonnefoux’s colorful and classic Cinderella follows the classic story of a young girl who goes from being a lonely servant to a beautiful princess. Cinderella, a three act ballet, whisks audiences to the fairytale settings of a sumptuous ball at the King’s palace, a lush garden and a quaint cottage.
Costumes are by world-renowned designer A. Christina Giannini and the elaborate sets are by famous New York City Ballet set designer Alain Vaes. “Cinderella is our most beautiful production. The sets and costumes are wonderful,” said Bonnefoux.
The cast of over 60 dancers is led by three Company dancers – Traci Gilchrest, Rebecca Carmazzi and Alessandra Ball – sharing the role of Cinderella. Students from North Carolina Dance Theatre School of Dance perform as garden attendants and woodland animals, adding to the charm of theballet.
Full of magic, humor and romance, Cinderella is a ballet to be enjoyed by audiences of all ages!
