Opera Ithaca Presents Rossini's 'Cinderella' in Three Performances

Opera Ithaca is presenting Gioachino Rossini's version the the Cinderella story for two full-length performances and one performance of a short children's version. General Director Zachary James and hair and make-up coordinator Dorothy Peterson talk about the history of the original version, staging this effervescent comedy with a large cast, and adding choreography.  They also tell about their visit to a vast costume warehouse to find appropriate clothing for the cast -- and finding some costumes specially made for well-known singers.https://wskg.org/audio/cinderella.mp3
