Ballet Ariel's Cinderella

Ballet Ariel's professional company returns this April for its first live performances of the year with Cinderella. This shortened, one act version has all the beauty and grandeur, wit and whimsy of the full-length version, where one young woman’s life is forever changed by a fairy godmother and a delicate slipper. The wicked stepsisters cavort in the most outrageous and amusing manner hoping to capture the attention of Prince Charming. But in the end, it is the fair and lovely Cinderella who wins the heart of the Prince. Performed to Sergei Prokofiev’s captivating score. Ballet Ariel’s talented team of Director Ilena Norton’s and Gregory Gonzales’ original choreography is a dynamic post-modern classic gem. With Ballet Ariel dancers Jennifer Kuhn as Cinderella and Yoshiko Brunson as the Fairy Godmother.
