Famed composer Gioachino Rossini elevates the story of Cinderella to a heart-warming tale of love and forgiveness in this virtuosic and enchanting opera. Angelina (Cenerentola), lives a generous life despite the cruelty of her stepsisters and stepfather. Meanwhile, as Prince Ramiro searches for a wife he manages to unravel everyone’s true nature and hijinks and romance ensue. Join the Victorian Opera and artistic directors Richard Mills and Elizabeth Hill-Cooper as they unite to bring Rossini’s joy-filled parable back to Melbourne.
