Matthew Bourne’s interpretation of the classical story Cinderella was first seen in the West End in 1997, but has now been completely revised.
Set in the second world war. Cinderella is an abused young girl who has a chance meeting with a war time pilot, which results in a magical night for Cinderella and her dashing pilot before they are parted in the war time blitz.
This ballet is quite a sombre one but interprets the feelings of wartime London perfectly. It is clearly influenced by the passion that Matthew Bourne has with wartime and old films.
This has everything from the beautiful music by Prokofiev, to the fairy Godmother who obviously has had a sex change for this production!
