César Award-winning filmmaker Guillaume Gallienne (Me Myself and Mum) of the Comédie-Française will stage his first opera, with mezzo-soprano Teresa Iervolino in the title role of Rossini's beloved comedy.
"The world is one large theatre And we are all actors; We can change characters In an instant." - Alidoro, Act I, Scene 7
“Before the carnival is over, all Rome will love my Cinderella…” Thus spoke Rossini in 1817, in the aftermath of the disastrous opening night, firmly convinced that his pumpkin would be transformed into a sumptuous carriage. The future was to prove him right. However, in moving from Perrault’s tale to the opera, the humble servant who dreams of going to the ball has lost all her magical attributes: here there is no fairy godmother to transform mice into horses, rats into coachmen and lizards into footmen with a wave of her wand. And it is not a fur slipper but a bracelet that the beauty leaves behind for her prince, quite deliberately, challenging him to find her again.
The Enlightenment had lit its fires throughout Europe and La Cenerentola focused on the burning issues of the day, confronting social divisions to reveal the crinoline beneath the rags.
