New York, NY, March 31, 2011 --(PR.com)-- The Birmingham Royal Ballet Production of Cinderella Debuts on DVD & Blu-ray April 26th

Kultur is proud to announce the Blu-ray & DVD release of the Birmingham Royal Ballet production of Prokofiev’s fairytale ballet Cinderella choreographed by David Bintley. The DVD and Blu-ray will both be available on April 26, 2010.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Birmingham Royal Ballet, award-winning chief choreographer, David Bintley, creates his own stunning new Cinderella fairy story, returning to the essence of the 17th-century original.

Elisha Willis plays the forlorn and palely loitering Cinders, her two bullying stepsisters Skinny played by Gaylene Cummerfield and Dumpy by Carol-Anne Millar, having fun in a fat suit, tread a nimble line between comedy and nastiness, while never descending to caricature. Their wicked witch of a mother is played by the wonderfully Cruella De Vil-like Marion Tait. The prince is played by Iain MacKay.

Designer John Macfarlane has conjured up a magical world to bring this much loved fairytale to life. After a terrific opening, he transforms the potently grim kitchen into a dream-like, star-speckled fantasia-like nightmare: a giant friendly frog and a pair of lively lizards help dress Cinderella for the ball; the glittering carriage, like spun sugar, folds itself together; and Cinderella vanishes at the stroke of midnight through the whirring mechanism of a simply amazing clock. The piece ends with a vast celestial body melting on to the stage.
