"Cinderella" ballet by will be broadcast on the online-platform of the Mariinsky theatre artists today at 9 PM.
Cinderella marked Alexei Ratmansky’s debut in the genre of the multi act plot ballet; previously he had only staged oneact ballets and miniatures. And Ratmansky, unlike many predecessors who staged this ballet, proposed an interpretation of Prokofiev’s immense score rather than the plot of the familiar fairy-tale.
Premiere of Alexei Ratmansky´s version: 5 March 2002, Mariinsky Theatre.
The video will be available in 24 hours.
