Then do not pass go do not collect $200, go directly to the Ahmanson Theatre in DTLA and catch this stunning provocative profound reimagining of the classic tale, now playing through March 10th. Another magnum opus by the celebrated choreographer and director, Sir Matthew Bourne, "Cinderella" is a thrilling and evocative love story set in London during the Second World War.

With Lez Brotherston’s sumptuous costumes and sets, which won an Olivier Award for his original designs, and lighting by Olivier Award-winning Neil Austin, “Cinderella” is performed in surround sound, designed by Paul Groothuis and featuring a specially commissioned recording played by a 60-piece orchestra.

Bourne’s vivid storytelling has never been more touching and captivating, taking audiences into the heart of Prokofiev’s magnificent score, and the sights and sounds of war-torn London during The Blitz.
