- Synopsis:
Maguy Marins highly original and magical version of the 'Cinderella' story was an unparalleled success through out its world tour. Anna Kisselgoff of the New York Times said that Marins vision reaches back into the universals of everyones childhood - the hurts and joys resonate here with touching depth. Marins choreographic vision is so extraordinarily original and magical that it seems to evoke universally familiar images and memories of childhood. In her childlike approach to the work, the characters are presented as living dolls with real human feelings projected upon them in the way children like to identify with their toys. The fairy tale is set in a dolls house, the Fairy Godmother is a robot, 'Cinderella' goes to the ball in a toy car and the Prince sets off in search of his beautiful but unknown guest astride a rocking horse - Directors:
