Birmingham Royal Ballet (BRB) will tour Sir David Bintley’s magical production of Cinderella to venues across the UK in 2025.

Sir David Bintley’s Cinderella remains one of the most popular ballets in BRB’s repertoire, featuring sumptuous sets and costumes, virtuoso dance and magical transformations. Sergei Prokofiev’s sweeping musical score takes audiences on an unforgettable fairytale journey, played live by the Royal Ballet Sinfonia.
The visually stunning production features incredible scenic and costume designs by the acclaimed artist John Macfarlane.
Cinderella continues to thrill audiences across the world; following on from the UK tour, the production will then play at Tokyo’s Bunka Kaikan in Japan (27 – 29 June).
Former BRB Soloist and now Royal Ballet Principal Dancer William Bracewell will join the Company as a guest performer in the role of The Prince dancing alongside Momoko Hirata at Birmingham Hippodrome on the evening of Thursday 20th and Saturday 22nd February 2025. William Bracewell will also be a guest performer for dates in Japan on Friday 27 June and Sunday 29 June.
Birmingham Royal Ballet’s Director, Carlos Acosta said: “Cinderella remains an enduring classic in the BRB canon and a firm audience favourite.
