About Cinderella La Cenerentola

Cinderella’s life is all chores and no choices, stuck cleaning up after her self-absorbed stepsisters. But beneath the surface, she’s holding onto hope — for a life where she’s seen for who she truly is, not just what she does.

When she crosses paths with Prince Don Ramiro, sparks fly. He’s drawn not to status or beauty, but to her kindness and strength. Could this be the moment her story changes?

Forget the pumpkin carriage and fairy godmother, this Cinderella is guided by a chorus of mystical ancestors, who nudge her toward her destiny with a touch of magic and mischief. Expect playful surprises, a reimagined glass slipper moment, and a gown worthy of a modern-day princess.

Rossini’s effervescent score bubbles with wit and warmth, filled with dazzling arias and sparkling ensembles. It’s a musical feast that showcases the composer at his most joyful and inventive, a perfect match for this fresh, feel-good take on a timeless tale.
