Music: Prokofiev Choreography: Alexei Ratmansky One of the most
revered companies in classical dance, the Mariinsky Ballet has endured
as a bastion of arts excellence and innovation for more than two
centuries. The company presents one of the most celebrated works in
its repertoire, Alexei Ratmansky's Cinderella. Commissioned for the
Mariinsky in 2002, the production launched the choreographer to
international stardom, earning him a reputation for revitalizing
classic ballet with urbane sophistication and modern storytelling.
Ratmansky's enchanting version of the fairy tale draws its drama from
the wellspring of Prokofiev's glorious, bittersweet score performed by
the unparalleled Mariinsky Orchestra.
