Description Following its success with Romeo and Juliet at the 1996 Festival, Lyon Opera Ballet returns with its most celebrated work. Considered a national treasure of France, Maguy Marin is one of the most sought after choreographers in the world. With this acclaimed ballet she has created a thoroughly modern fairytale of visual delicacy and enchantment. Dolls come to life on a magical toyland stage, Cinderella's coach is a pink convertible, and her fairy godmother a Star Wars figure complete with neon wand. Cinderella transcends the limits of any one style, and will enthral all.
