CINDERELLA: DUTCH NATIONAL BALLET Tickets and Dates

A brand-new Cinderella ballet, choreographed by the internationally acclaimed Christopher Wheeldon, will be performed live at the London Coliseum in July 2015. Premiered by the Dutch National Ballet at Dutch National Opera & Ballet in December 2012 to a rapturous reception from both ballet fans and critics alike, this will be the first time the ballet has been performed on stage outside the Netherlands. Influenced by the Brothers Grimm story of Cinderella, Wheeldon has created an enchanting ballet set to Prokofiev's magnificent score with stunning sets and costumes by British designer Julian Crouch. Sadler's Wells Associate Artist Christopher Wheeldon is one of the most sought-after choreographers in the dance world today. His version of Cinderella shows a kind-hearted heroine making the best of life without her beloved mother, while over at the Palace Prince Guillaume is chafing against the restrictions of royal protocol and princely duty. Elaborating on the traditional narrative with a fleshed out backstory for the lead characters, the ballet is choreographed with lyricism, elegance and wit to create a truly entertaining spectacle. Presented in association with Sadler's Wells.
