Creating Cinderella

Birmingham Royal Ballet have an exciting project on at the moment. Later this year you will have a chance to see David Bintley's new production of Cinderella at the Birmingham Hippodrome. This promises to be an exciting new interpretaion of Prokofiev's ballet with John Macfarlane's designs providing a very dramatic backdrop.

One of the things I love about this new production is that you can follow the developments on the Creating Cinderella blog. Everything from the creation of prosthetic heads to the thinking behind the designs. What is revealing is David Bintley's video diary so you can follow the development from his first intentions back at the start of 2010.

Video footage of the rehearsals and choreography make this a remarkable record of a highly creative process. So take a look at the blog and go and see the show. It's on between November 24th and December 12th, so click here to book now.
