Approved

Cape Town Opera in association with Abrahamse & Meyer presents the South African premiere of Pauline Viardot’s 1904 opera, Cendrillon (Cinderella). The beloved age-old fairytale tells the tale of the lovely but mistreated ‘Marie’ (Cinderella) who slaves away in her father’s household, subservient to him and to her mean sisters. With the help of her Fairy Godmother, Marie attends the Prince’s ball where they meet and fall in love, and she is saved from her wretched family to live happily ever after. Expect spectacular costumes, sets and lighting in this enchanting family-friendly production that comes with all the glamour and glitter that opera has to offer, starring sopranos Brittany Smith and Janelle Visagie, with a stellar supporting cast.
