Some of the details may be different (this version has a wicked stepfather, a philosopher in lieu of fairy godmother, and a bracelet instead of glass slipper), but in Gioachino Rossini’s Cinderella, goodness and nobility of heart still triumph over greed and envy. PSO makes full use of the vocally-acrobatic arias, buoyant ensembles, and comic touches in this fairy-tale opera that will delight both the young and the young-at-heart.
