Celebrate the Timeless Tale with Loved Ones; Featuring Choreography by Victoria Morgan and Live Music by Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra
“I’m thrilled to bring ‘Cinderella’ to Orlando and work with the immense talent at Orlando Ballet,”. According to artistic director of the Cincinnati Ballet Victoria Morgan. “Everyone loves the classic story of ‘Cinderella,’ but I hope that audiences find my version to be a breath of fresh air. The production is visually stunning—there’s a massive, gorgeous carriage, and the costumes are wonderful—but most importantly, the talented dancers of Orlando Ballet will also bring my choreography to life beautifully.”
“It’s a true pleasure to have Victoria Morgan’s choreography part of our repertoire this season,” said Orlando Ballet artistic director Robert Hill. “Victoria is a visionary with unmatched artistic-excellence, and I’m so happy our dancers get to work with and learn from choreographers of her caliber. Live accompaniment by the wonderful Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra will bring so much magic to the production, too—audiences are in for a treat.”
