Adapted by choreographer Frederick Ashton, this was the first time the popular tale had utilized Profkiev's score in the West. First performed in Vienna circa 1813, this version of Prokofiev's "Cinderella" dates back to 1957. Revolutionizing the production, Ashton peppered it with a number of personal changes to the story, many of which can still be seen in modern interpretations of "Cinderella." The cast includes Margot Fonteyn, Frederick Ashton, Michael Somes, and Kenneth MacMillian among their number, making this a very special version of the tale.
Prokofiev's great ballet features Margot Fonteyn, Michael Somes, Frederick Ashton, Kenneth MacMillian, Sadler’s Wells Ballet (Royal Ballet).
