On the surface a joyous retelling of the Cinderella story, complete with a murderously wicked stepfather and astonishingly virtuosic vocal parts for Cinderella and Ramiro (the Prince), the triumph of goodness and kindness in Rossini’s opera masks a more biting commentary on status and desire.
This new production is helmed by director and movement specialist Jenny Ogilvie and conductor Naomi Woo.
