Tetsuya Kumakawa and K-BALLET Opto present a new "Cinderella" starring a "young carer".

K-BALLET Opto is K-BALLET's new project which has been picking up steam; its second production "Plastic" was picked up by media sources, such as The Guardian, and has been recognized globally. And now, the third production will be presented in 2024! "Cinderella's House" will focus on the perspective of a "young-carer" through the story of Cinderella. The production sheds light on her growth as she overcomes strife because of her situation, and her inner battle between loving her family and wanting to be freed from her responsibilities. This collection of poems "Cinderella" is written by Tahi Saihate who has continued to lead many poets in rebranding poetry as an artform.
