Segerstrom Center for the Arts presents the Southern California debut of Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo performing a sophisticated version of the classic romantic ballet, Cinderella. One of Sergei Prokofiev's most popular and melodic scores, this production of the fairy tale ballet by a company from the real-life fairy tale kingdom of Monaco is choreographed by artistic director Jean-Christophe Maillot, whose sleek and modern interpretation presents Cinderella as a fresh-faced girl in a simple ivory frock and bare feet. Her longing for her lost mother is so great, it results in the appearance of a fairy godmother who will guide the girl into womanhood. This is Cinderella as you've never seen it before. Called "poetic and expressive" by La Croix and "brilliant" by Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Maillot's Cinderella will capture your heart.

A good company. Some fine dancing and clever choreography. Recorded music and a somewhat minimal set but I'm sure done for budgetary reasons. The costumes were fun and it was a somewhat new take on the cinderella story.

I took my mother and we were both thoroughly impressed by the entire experience. The show was beautifully done and we enjoyed the interpretation of the classic tale of Cinderella very much! There was comedy and of course, the love story! The performers were wonderful and extremely talented as well.
Great way to spend an afternoon!
