 But why region-encode it?!?! August 19, 2001
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Neither this cast nor performance deserves less than praise. This is a priceless document for any fan of ballet and particularly fans of the Royal Ballet who might know a little about the figures involved. It must have given Helpmann and Sir Freddy huge enjoyment to do their parts knowing they'd forever be preserved on film! I need barely comment on the principals.pMy only gripe is why did Kultur encode it as Region 1? Most studios don't bother with that sort of stuff for this kind of film. It's a british performance that deserves to be on the shelves in the UK! A "Covent Garden Pioneer" offering. And I say thank you to this American studio for producing it at all! Just a nuisance having to switch over my player. British customers should check their players can be rigged to region 1 before buying.
A delightful experience August 6, 2001

Cinderella is certainly not the greatest or most challenging ballet, but it's charming and the music is lovely. This production adds the legendary partnership of Sibley and Dowell, both dancing a their peaks; a first rate supporting cast (watch for a tiny Wayne Sleep, who steals the show from a couple of professional scene stealers, Ashton and Helpmann); beautiful sets and costumes; and, best of all, unfussy photography (that alone rates 5 stars!) that allows the viewer a relatively unimpeded view of the choreography and stage action. Altogether a delightful experience.
Glamarous as Always May 30, 2001

Of Course, the Royal Ballet is glamarous as always. This version of Prokofiev's Cinderella is beautiful to watch, as all of the dancers, not just Sibley and Dowell, but all dance with poise and such elegance that intrigues you to watch every tondue and plie that is made. Cinderella is not my favourite ballet out of all, however, this is one of the best version's I've seen. The music is powerful yet soothing, making the best mix, which is no surprise from Prokofiev. The choreography is mixed with the right touch to flow with the music. Enjoy Royal Ballet's Cinderella!
Great Production February 12, 2000

What I enjoyed most about this video is that it showcases Sibley and Dowell at the height of their balletic powers. Also there's Georgiana Parkinson as the Fairy Godmother and Ashton Helpmann as the Sisters. Antoinette Sibley is gorgeous in this ballet !
A Classic. Also funny. The children will like it, too. May 25, 1999

The Royal Ballet version of `Cinderella' is delicious - and an excellent choice for people who are new to ballet. (More experienced viewers might prefer more taxing choreography.)p This particular tape, however, has a terrific cast. It stars Anthony Dowell and Antoinette Sibley as Cinderella and her Prince - while the ugly sisters are brilliantly played by Freddy Ashton (the choreographer) and Robert Helpman. Wayne Sleep is there, too. Oh, and the music is glorious.
