Unfortunately tickets for Cinderella are not currently available.
English National Ballet's award-winning production of Cinderella tells everyone's favourite rags to riches story in a beautiful three-act ballet created in 1996 by Michael Corder. This year's revival of Cinderella heralds the Company's return to the Coliseum for its Summer season, and the 60th birthday party celebrations on the 14th August - the Company's official birthday.
After the death of her parents, Cinderella is left orphaned and penniless and her wicked stepmother turns her into a servant. Tormented by her spiteful stepsisters and unable to attend the forthcoming glamorous Prince's ball, Cinderella is downcast, upset and alone. But her Fairy Godmother intervenes and transforms her into a beautiful Princess complete with coach who shall go to the ball.
Despite her Fairy Godmother's warning Cinderella stays at the ball in the Prince's arms until midnight where she begins to transform back into rags and loses one of her enchanted slippers. The Prince vows to find the owner of the delicate glass slipper but must first refuse the advances of Cinderella's cruel stepsisters before he can take Cinderella as his Princess forever.
Prokofiev's uplifting score and David Walker's sumptuous costumes and sets combine with magical choreography to conjure up a beautiful fairy tale world.
