Event Information

Exeter Opera Group will perform Rossini’s La Cenerentola - a variation on Cinderella

First staged in 1817, La Cenerentola switches the folk tale’s familiar wicked stepmother for a stepfather, the fairy godmother for a philosopher and the glass slipper for a silver bracelet. It also adds a case of mistaken identity.

This production is performed in Italian and Angelina – known as Cenerentola by her stepfamily – will be played by Iryna Ilnytska with Wendi Zhang as Don Ramiro, the prince.

Supporting roles will be performed by players including HoWang Yuen, Ian Spackman, Nick Young, Clare Northcott and Isobel Hughes.

The production, directed by Nick Lawrence with music by Stephen Moseley, will be accompanied by Tim Laurence-Othen on piano.

Exeter Opera Group was founded by Iryna Ilnytska, a mezzo-soprano from Ukraine, who began studying music aged eight before performing at Kyiv Opera Studio in her teens. In the UK, she has worked with companies including Red Earth Opera, Staircase Opera and Opera in a Box, and has performed with the Stella Maris Trio at venues in Devon and Oxfordshire.

She has given several charity concerts to raise funds for volunteers who are supporting victims of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
