BWW Review: Matthew Bourne's CINDERELLA is a Shoe-in Splendiferous Success at The Ahmanson Theatre
by Valerie-Jean Miller
- Feb 14, 2019
New Adventure's Production of the tale of Cinderella has never been more salacious or delicious. The dancing is superb, as well as the artistry involved in every facet of the production. With the updated scenario created, Cindy's world is smack dab in the middle of World War II. Directed and Choreographed by the incredible Sir Matthew Bourne, and loosely based on his parent's war stories, we are taken to London in the '40s, during the middle of air raids, bombings and destruction. The set design and wardrobe is all very drab in muted black and grey reflecting the tone of the environment.
Wickedly creative is the choreography, the sets, the costumes, lighting and sound, not to mention the score by Prokofiev. Cinderella Opus 87 is such a melodious wonderland for a choreographer and his artistic team to work with. There is such power, intensity and magic in this lively piece. In Sir Matthew Bourne's hands, and feet, it is a fabulous, imaginative display of artistry and brilliance.

Thanks to Matthew Bourne, now Christmas in London doesn't only mean endless Nutcrackers (as lovely as they are) but for over fifteen years dance fans have been treated to his theatrical mix of gothic grit and fairytale charm transporting the audience to a bygone era. This year's festive offering of Cinderella (last seen at Sadler's Wells in the Christmas of 2010) is no different and fans of Bourne will adore this glamorous tale set against the contrasting backdrop of bleak wartime London.
