La Cenerentola

The magic of time-honored fairytale Cinderella collides with the high artform of opera in Rossini's great mid-18th century dramma giocoso "La Cenerentola". Brought lovingly to the stage by Utah Opera, the comedy and drama-infused spectacular heads to Salt Lake City in a production helmed by stage director Michael Shell, conductor Steven White and chorus director Austin McWilliams, with Camille Sherman in the central role of Angelina/Cinderella!

What Is The Story?

Filled with humour and good natured fun, this Cinderella story is very much Rossini's take on the beloved story. The kind natured Angelina/Cinderella must still contend with two ridiculous step-sisters, but here has to wait hand and foot on her wicked step-father Don Magnifico to boot! Not content to stay stuck as a damsel in distress, she takes matters into her own hands to fend off her mean family members and pursue the prince on her own terms. Brava!
