Two nights of Alba Ballets Cinderella in Greenock.

The 11th of November was opening night for Alba Ballets production of Cinderella at The Beacon Arts Centre in Greenock. Finally the curtain went up on Cinderella. The whole cast put on a wonderful performance and the audience reaction was fantastic. All the hard work had paid off and by the second night the nerves had gone and the cast were able to really enjoy the second performance. Our two performances in Greenock were not the end of Cinderella 2016, as we were going down the Clyde to a new venue for Alba in Largs.
