Cinderella’s Dream (Aschenbrödels Traum)

Explore a fresh take on the classic Cinderella story! Inspired by Johann Strauss’s unfinished ballet, Axel Ranisch and Martina Eisenreich dream up a unique operetta that blends the original ballet’s history with a modern twist on the fairy tale. Cinderella’s Dream invites the audience on a magical journey of self-discovery, liberation, creativity, and the power of imagination. Martina Eisenreich’s music captures Johann Strauss’s artistic spirit, weaving in familiar motifs while creating a completely original musical world, which conductor Leslie Suganandarajah brings to life formidably: “The orchestra mastered the genre shifts in Eisenreich's score, which elegantly combined Strauss, feel-good film music and twelve-tone echoes” (Die Presse). " An accessible, entertaining, contemporary approach to the world of the Waltz King ." (Der Standard)
