Guest Artist: Richard Isaacs as The Prince
student, Alyssa Schneider as Cinderella
Artistic Director: Tammy Schmidt Perry

The Classical ballet featuring music by Prokofiev.

This was a very nice staging of the ballet. Tammy Schmidt-Perry added her own mark by giving some of the Fairies and Corps new choreography to go along with some of the original staging.

Richard Isaacs showed why he is a professional, as his leaps and turns were so much smoother and higher than any of the students. Miss Schneider did a fine job of holding her own alongside a professional and through such an intense performance schedule (Schneider, only 15, was on stage dancing most of the show, with numerous solos and Pas de Deux).

A very good show.

{My three children were in the show, two as Trolls and one as a Dragonfly.}
