Choreographer Frederick Ashton played the Ugly Stepsister in the original production of his Cinderella ballet; that should give you an idea of the fun he had in bringing this timeless fairytale to life. Set to Prokofiev's evocative score, this classic comic ballet captures all the magic of the beloved tale of love triumphant. The whole family will get swept away as the Fairy Godmother and the Fairies of the Four Seasons help Cinderella overcome her mean-spirited stepsisters and find her Prince. With grand sets and sumptuous costumes, this production from Chicago's acclaimed Joffrey Ballet is a crowd pleaser for all, and a perfect introduction to ballet for younger audiences.
