The Story of Cinderella

Cinderella returns to the stage with all the beauty and grace of classical ballet — and a playful spirit that makes it perfect for all ages. Follow the kind-hearted young Cinderella as she navigates a household of comical chaos, a royal invitation, and a life-changing night at the palace. With the help of her Guardian Angel, Cinderella is transformed for the ball, where she and the Prince share a fleeting connection. But when the clock strikes midnight, the magic disappears, leaving only a glass slipper behind.

Featuring exquisite dancing, whimsical characters, and Prokofiev’s rich, romantic score, Cinderella is a joyful escape into a world where kindness wins and dreams really do come true.

A ballet dancer performs a leap on stage, wearing a flowing gold dress and pink pointe shoes, with a scenic backdrop of a corridor with arches and patterned floor.

Welcome Letter

Dear Friends,

Welcome to the final performance of Ballet San Antonio’s 40th Anniversary Season—Cinderella.

As we celebrate this remarkable milestone, we extend our heartfelt appreciation to our season sponsors, Carla and John Brozovich, along with the Russell Hill Rogers Fund for the Arts, the City of San Antonio Department of Arts and Culture, and Bexar County. Their generosity and commitment to the arts help make our performances possible.

This enchanting production is choreographed by Conny Mathôt and features a gifted children’s cast of students from our official ballet school, the School of Ballet San Antonio, performing alongside the exceptional professional dancers of Ballet San Antonio.

If you are able, we invite you to consider making a gift today. Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a meaningful impact and helps ensure that ballet continues to flourish in our community. Your support—through your attendance, enthusiasm, and generosity—allows us to do what we love most: share the art of dance with you.

And while this production marks the close of a very special season, it is also the beginning of what comes next. We are already preparing an exciting new season of unforgettable stories, breathtaking movement, and inspiring artistry—soon to be announced. We hope you will continue this journey with us and join us again next season.

Thank you for celebrating this milestone with us. We are deeply grateful for your presence and hope you enjoy the performance.
