Certificate

Running Time

You know the deal: fairy godmother, glass slipper, opulent ball, enchanted forest, Prince Charming. etc. Massenet’s take on Cinderella comes to the Met for this first time in this suitably sumptuous and imaginative new production by Laurent Pelly.

Operatic superstar Joyce DiDonato takes the title role. She’s joined by mezzo-soprano Alice Coote in the trouser role of Prince Charming, Kathleen Kim as the Fairy Godmother, and Stephanie Blythe as the imperious Madame de la Haltière.
