One of the most magical and optimistic fairly tales, Cinderella, is coming to the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark this December in a full-scale ballet production you do not want to miss! The performance is choreographed by Vladimir Vasiliev, a former principal dancer with the Bolshoi Ballet, who was the first dancer ever to receive the gold medal of the World’s Best Dancer, well before Mikhail Baryshnikov.
The State Ballet Theatre of Russia was founded by Maya Plisetskaya, the legendary dancer and former prima ballerina of the Bolshoi Theater Ballet and is now under the direction of award-winning dancer and Moiseyev Dance Company soloist Nikolay Anokhin. The company has showcased the unparalleled art of Russian ballet to countries throughout the world, and now tours the U.S. with 55 of Russia’s finest dancers in Cinderella.

Don’t Miss: Cinderella by the State Ballet Theatre of Russia
I have never seen a ‘live’ ballet with professional dancers. I have heard the Russian troupe is so wonderful to see and have seen them on TV but not in person. This is one show I would love to attend!
