Set in Italy in the 1960s, scene of a thousand creative energies, of desire for redemption and personal affirmation, our Cinderella, although subordinate to her stepmother and two half-sisters, preserves, intact, her dreamy sweetness, grace, charm and idealism suited to the role, qualities that will lead to the inevitable happy ending.

No glass slipper to make her once again dominated by the choices of others, but a splendid woman able to make her own decisions and who once again reveals her intense humanity. Because Cinderella as Prokofiev teaches "is not just a fairy tale character, but a living being: she suffers, she lives and her destiny always moves us".
The show is also a heartfelt tribute to the art of Gioacchino Rossini and his musics is alternated with those of the composer Simone Pizzardo.
