On Sunday, 30 June, from 19.00, Happy Cinema Bucharest invites you to an extraordinary screening of Matthew Bourne's magical 'Cinderella' ballet.
Matthew Bourne’s 'Cinderella' is a thrilling and evocative love story set in London during the Second World War. The internationally acclaimed choreographer’s interpretation of the classic fairy tale has, at its heart, a true war-time romance. A chance meeting results in a magical night for Cinderella, danced by Ashley Shaw, and her dashing young RAF pilot Andrew Monaghan, together just long enough to fall in love before being parted by the horrors of the Blitz. A talented cast of New Adventures veterans and exciting young dancers perform in the production filmed live at Sadler’s Wells, including Liam Mower as the Angel, Michela Meazza as the Step-Mother and Alan Vincent as Cinderella’s Father.
The sights and sounds of war-torn London are recreated by Lez Brotherston’s Olivier Award-winning costumes and sets, lighting by Olivier Award-winning Neil Austin, video and projection designs by Duncan McLean, and surround sound designed by Paul Groothuis. Matthew Bourne’s vivid storytelling has never been more heart-stopping and touching, and will take the audience into the heart of Prokofiev’s magnificent score.
Filmed live at Sadler’s Wells, London, in December 2017, Matthew Bourne’s 'Cinderella' is directed for the screen by Ross MacGibbon.
