Gioacchino Rossini transformed the material of the Grimm fairytale of Cinderella into a feather-light bel canto parable about the victory of virtue over pride. In 1997, director Achim Freyer and designer Maria-Elena Amos produced this charming opera buffa at the Volksoper, turning it into a "magically musical fairytale book" in the words of the enthusiastic review in the daily newspaper Die Presse. After six years, this production is now
returning to the Volksoper stage.
