Live Stream Review: The Royal Ballet: Cinderella
A lavish production of a very average ballet left me feeling uninspired after this live stream.

JOYOUS is my verdict on Coppelia by the Royal Ballet from the Royal Opera House live stream on 10th December 2019.
Review of the Royal Ballet’s triple bill of In the Golden Hour, Medusa and Flight Pattern. This was a interesting triple bill by the Royal Ballet. It balanced an easy to watch, engaging and joyous piece with two more abstract and emotional pieces to create a dance experience that the Company performed exceptionally well.
Following the first production of La Bayadere the Petersburg Gazette wrote of choreographer Marius Petipa, “Watching the new ballet, one is just astonished at the inexhaustible imagination our ballet master possesses. All the dances are marked with freshness and colour, novelty in the groupings, richness of invention, intelligence of story and coordination with the place of action.”
