“If you are looking for magic, you will find it here... a breathtaking Cinderella that will enchant audiences lucky enough to see it.” Ann Hunt, Sunday Star-Times
Christopher Hampson’s Cinderella returns to our stage in August. Acclaimed New Zealand designer Tracy Grant-Lord’s sumptuous costumes and lavish sets draw you into a glittering fantasy world.
In her grief, the young Cinderella plants a rose at her mother’s graveside. When her father remarries, the future seems bleaker than ever. Her wicked stepmother is intent on pushing kind and beautiful Cinderella aside in favour of her two nasty step-sisters. The course of true love never did run smooth, but in this best loved of all fairy tales, Cinderella meets her prince.
Dazzling against the light and dark of Prokoviev’s powerful score, this ravishing interpretation of the timeless rags to riches romance is everything you could wish for and more.
