Absolute Dance of Grand Junction is proud to announce the upcoming presentation of Cinderella, a full-length ballet, as the studio's major performance for the Winter 2012-2013 season. Originally composed by Sergei Prokofiev and premiered at the Bolshoi Theater in Russia in 1945, Cinderella grew to become one of Prokofiev's most popular and melodious compositions, inspiring a great many choreographers since its inception. The jubilant music, lush scenery, comedic turns by the Stepsisters and classic fairy tale story of Cinderella meeting her Prince charming are just a few of the reasons why audiences have flocked to attend performances of Cinderella, the ballet, for so many years.

Cinderella will be presented at the Montrose Pavilion in Montrose, Colorado, on Friday, January 18th at 7:30pm, Saturday, January 19th at 2:00pm and 7:30pm, and Sunday, January 20th at 2:00pm. Grand Junction Cinderella performances will take place in the Robinson Theatre in the Moss Performing Arts Center on the campus of Colorado Mesa University, with shows on Friday, January 25th at 7:30pm, Saturday, January 26th at 2:00pm and 7:30pm, and a final encore at 2:00pm on Sunday, January 27th.
