50th SEASON OPENS WITH A CINDERELLA STORY!

The Light-Hearted Comedy La Cenerentola Kicks Off the Season
November 12, 15, 18

Manitoba Opera opens its 50th season with a much-needed dose of light-hearted comedy and sheer fun with Rossini’s sparkling version of the classic fairy tale Cinderella (La Cenerentola – pronounced Chen er n toe lah) at the Centennial Concert Hall Saturday, November 12 (7:30 pm), Tuesday, November 15 (7pm), and Friday, November 18 (7:30 pm).

This heart-warming tale of the triumph of kindness over envy is sure to delight all ages. There’s love at first sight, mistaken identities, and lots of laughs.

Starring Winnipeg mezzo-soprano Lizzy Hoyt in the title role, the production features a 1950’s mid-century modern-inspired set with colourful exaggerated haute couture costuming.
