# Event Details

- **Event Name**: FREE Ballet Film Screening: Rudolf Nureyev's "Cinderella"
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 16 Aug, 2026 at 02:00 pm
- **Event Description**: A ballet in three acts, Charles Perrault’s famous fairy tale, set to music by Sergei Prokofiev, is transported into the world of cinema, with references throughout to the heroes of American film. Rudolf Nureyev places his Cinderella under the bright lights of Hollywood. With a producer as her fairy godmother and a movie star as her Prince Charming, she escapes her difficult fate and sees her dreams come true. The story also echoes Nureyev’s own journey, from a young Tatar dancer to an international star. Through this “ballet metaphor,” the Company pays tribute to Rudolf Nureyev, who served as its director.
