CINDERELLA

by LES BALLETS DE MONTE-CARLO

New York City Center
131 West 55th Street, New York City

Thursday, February 18 - 8:00PM

Friday, February 19 - 8:00PM

Choreography: Jean-Christophe Maillot
Music: Sergei Prokofiev
Scenography: Ernest Pignon-Ernest
Costumes: Jérôme Kaplan
Lighting: Dominique Drillot
“Cinderella is not only a fairy tale character,” Prokofiev said, “but also a living being, who feels and lives, and whose fate moves us”. Following the example of this essentially human vision, Jean-Christophe Maillot toys with the natural and the supernatural to unfold this great picture book which is to us both familiar and unfamiliar. Guided by the memory of her mother, Cinderella opens her own path, searching for recognition and love, amongst the tragic excessiveness of a court with a sophisticated attractiveness. Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo’s Cinderella premiered in 1999 at the Monte-Carlo Opera House.
