Dutch National Ballet have announced a new interpretation of Cinderella, coming to the London Coliseum in April 2015. Choreographed by Sadler’s Wells Associate Artist Christopher Wheeldon, the ballet premiered at Dutch National Opera & Ballet in December 2012 to great public and critical acclaim. Wheeldon’s ballet is set to Prokofiev’s score, performed live by Royal Ballet Sinfonia, with sets and costumes by British designer Julian Crouch.

Wheeldon is one of the most sought-after choreographers in the dance world today. His Cinderella, influenced by the Brothers Grimm story, shows a kind-hearted heroine making the best of life without her beloved mother, whilst over at the palace Prince Guillaume is struggling against the restrictions of royal protocol and princely duty. Elaborating on the traditional narrative, Cinderella is choreographed with lyricism, elegance and wit.

Venue: London Coliseum
Dates: 8th – 11th March 2015
