Everyone knows the story of Cinderella as portrayed in books and movies, but no medium quite captures the magic of this inspiring rags-to-riches tale as classical ballet. Experience the enchantment of Lafayette Ballet Theatre’s Cinderella at 7 p.m., Saturday, March 31, 2012, in the Heymann Performing Arts Center.
LBT promises an awe-inspiring evening appropriate for all ages. Principal guest artists from the Pacific Northwest Ballet and the Cincinnati Ballet will join the local cast in presenting the three-act, full-length classical production, set to Sergei Prokofiev’s celebrated score. Tickets – great for Valentine’s Day gifts – are available now through the Heymann Center Box Office and all Ticketmaster outlets.
Tickets are priced as follows: front orchestra, $40; back orchestra, $35; first balcony, $30; back orchestra, $20. Additional Ticketmaster fees may apply. Special group rates are available. Students are eligible for a 50-percent discount on balcony level tickets anytime, or they may opt for the “student rush” special: half off on all seats still available 30 minutes prior to curtain. (Students must present a current school ID at the Heymann Center Box Office to receive the “student rush” discount.) Tickets are available at the Heymann Center Box Office, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.; via phone, 337-291-5555; and online at www.ticketmaster.com.
