SANTA ROSA, Calif.—World Ballet by Gorskaya-Hartwick Productions creates original ballet productions that are accessible to everyone, from seasoned ballet lovers to first-timers, especially a younger audience. “Cinderella” is the first production of the series, which includes “The Nutcracker” and “Swan Lake.” The company performs over 150 times in over 140 cities across the United States each season, making it the largest touring ballet project in the country.
Cinderella’s story has been told in books, plays, and ballets. World Ballet has put a new spin on this cherished folk tale with some comedic costumes, hand-painted sets, and traditional ballet. A traditional score by Sergei Prokofiev adds to the charm of romantic sets, and beautifully performed acting and dancing.
