My First Ballet: Cinderella description
My First Cinderella is choreographed by George Williamson, English National Ballet’s Associate Artist. Earlier this year, at the age of 21, he created Firebird – a new work to Stravinsky’s classic score for English National Ballet.
The My First…series brings young audiences their first taste of ballet through the magic of fairytales, captivating music and beautiful dance. After presenting My First Sleeping Beauty at the Peacock Theatre last year, ENB2 returns with its graduating dancers of outstanding potential from English National Ballet School.
My First Cinderella tells everyone’s favourite rags-to-riches story in a beautifully adapted version for young audiences. Cinderella is tormented by her spiteful stepsisters and she can only dream of attending the Prince’s glamorous ball. Abandoned to an evening of drudgery, Cinderella is visited by her Fairy Godmother who transforms her into a glittering Princess who shall go to the ball.
