Cinderella - Le ballet de lOpra national de Paris (2018)

Charles Perrault’s celebrated tale, set to music by Sergei Prokofiev, is transposed to a film set. In a series of references to the heroes of the American cinema, Rudolf Nureyev propels his Cinderella under the spotlights of Hollywood. With a producer for fairy godmother and a star actor as Prince Charming, she escapes her miserable destiny and sees her dreams come true in a story not without similarities with that of the choreographer, the young Tartar who became an international star. With this “ballet‑metaphor”, the Company pays tribute to its former director Rudolf Nureyev. A great production that celebrates the opening of the Paris Opera’s anniversary year. Chorégraphie - Rudolf Noureev Cendrillon - Valentine Colasante L’Aceur-vedette - Karl Paquette Les Deux Sœurs - Ludmila Pagliero, Dorothée Gilbert La Mère - Aurélien Houette
