Charles Perrault

The masterly and Tony Award-winning musical "Into the Woods" by leading composer and lyricist Stephen Sondheim and the great writer James Lapine returns to the GNO Alternative Stage, at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center, in the new approved version for piano and percussion.

Ballets de Monte-Carlo artistic director Jean-Christophe Maillot strips Sergei Prokofiev's "Cinderella" down to its bare bones in a reading of the classic tale by Charles Perrault that treats the characters like real people rather than fairy-tale figures.
