Forget Disney.  This is the real thing.  The prince's "valet" kindles a flame in the innocent heart of a girl who sits by the fire.  A royal ball ignites the jealousy and passion of a court intrigued by a mysterious beauty.  A happy ending as the music of grace and love lights up the stage.

Bring your princess (or prince)!  Rossini, best known for Barber of Seville, wrote Cinderella when he was just 25 years old, and he did it in about three weeks!  Special discounts available for your royal youngsters.  Bring the whole family for this delightful fairytale confection!

Performed at the Pioneer Center for the Performing Arts
