English National Ballet returns to the Royal Albert Hall for the first time since 2019, with 14 performances of Christopher Wheeldon’s sumptuous ballet Cinderella in-the-round.

Christopher Wheeldon’s glittering choreography sees the arena floor flooded with exquisite dancers, while Prokofiev’s sublime score is performed by the English National Ballet Philharmonic.

Featuring over 90 dancers, a live orchestra, and magnificent sets and projections, Cinderella in-the-round is a truly epic night at the ballet.

Cinderella in-the-round runs from 15 to 25 June 2023 at the Royal Albert Hall in London.

This sparkling ballet will transport you to an enchanting kingdom where forest creatures live alongside princes, a growing tree appears to dance in the wind, and Cinderella’s wit and generosity get her to the ball – with the help of a little bit of magic.
