The Warwick Center for the Performing Arts (WCPA) brings the classic fairy tale Cinderella to life with two ballet performances on May 18 and 19, at the Warwick Valley High School, Sanfordville, Road, Warwick.
The Warwick Dance Collective and WCPA dance students will perform the classic ballet Cinderella, directed by Melissa Padham-Maass.
Cinderella the ballet is based on the traditional folk-tale with music by Serge Prokofiev, performed in three acts that tell the magical story of a servant girl turned princess, her evil step-sisters, a magical fairy Godmother and a charming prince who is smitten by her grace and beauty.
"We want our audiences to be carried away by the entrancing dance, the lavish stage props and the magic of the music," Padham-Maass said in the press release detailing the production. "Her lavish gown and all of the beautiful costumes for the dancers are created by our team of artistic seamstresses, Lucinda Henry, Mary Johnston and Eileen Padham."
