The famous fairy tale by Charles Perrault, music by Sergei Prokofiev, is transposed into a film set.
In a series of references to the heroes of American cinema, Rudolf Nureyev pushes his Cinderella in the spotlight of Hollywood.
Cinderella escapes her miserable destiny and sees her dreams come true in a story with affinity to that of the choreographer, the young Tartar who became an international star. With this " metaphor of the ballet ", the Company pays tribute to its former director Rudolf Nureyev.
A great production that celebrates the opening of the anniversary of the Paris Opera.
