Cendrillon

Production details

Description

“Cendrillon is the Massenet opera most readily approachable...”- Rodney Milnes. In this production, Viau takes the story to a modern Hollywood esthetic with a Kardashian-like mother and sisters dynamic, a media mob and Canadian Film icon Prince Charming reenacting Shia Labeouf’s “I’m not famous” stunt. Cendrillon is all of us: watching Hollywood from the sidelines, dreaming of a better, whimsical life with our one true love.
