Cinderella - The Ballet – Miller Theatre, New York

About this event

The World Ballet Company's production of Cinderella is staged as a Broadway-style classical ballet aimed at both longtime ballet fans and newcomers. It blends classical technique with humor, romance, and pantomime, presented with a cinematic, theatrical flair. The show features hand-crafted, hand-painted sets that create a storybook world. A multinational cast of 40 professional dancers brings the tale to life, supported by more than 150 radiant, hand-sewn costumes. The design highlights magical transformations, including the ballroom scenes and the pumpkin carriage. Choreographed by Marina Kesler, the production reimagines the fairy tale with modern spirit and witty touches, especially through the mischievous stepsisters. It is presented as a family-friendly event recommended for ages two and older, aligning with the company's mission to make ballet accessible nationwide.
