Wednesday, November 23, 2011, in the “Salle des Princes” of the Grimaldi Forum in Monaco, two sessions will be organized for free for our children at 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM, and a session exclusively for the public at 6:30 PM! Frankie will of course be doing his antics to amuse the crowd.
Featured, the Musical Comedy of “CINDERELLA”, to rediscover the favorite characters from your childhood for 1 hour and 15 minutes, a parody of the fairy tale, exclusively created for our association and directed by Julius Green from London.
More than a hundred artists coming expressly from London, clowns, acrobats, stilt walkers, along with the Ballet Corps of the Cannes Rosella Hightower Advanced School of Dance (102 children), will perform on stage.
Special Feature: It is the very first time in the Principality that a Christmas show is offered to the public in the run-up to the end-of-year festivities that they can attend as a family.
Tickets are on sale at the Grimaldi Forum, Fnac, and Carrefour.
The realization of this event would not be possible without the solidarity of the artists and the production team who wished to offer their performances for free.
The proceeds will benefit the Monegasque association “Les enfants de Frankie” chaired by Francien Giraudi.
*The chosen venue is a must for the second time after the Christmas show held in the year 2000.
The following evening, Thursday, November 24, 2011, the association Les Enfants de Frankie will organize, under the High Patronage of H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco, its annual charity evening “Cinderella’s Charity Ball” at the Llorca at the Grimaldi Forum, Monaco, from 8:00 PM.
This charity ball will conclude the Musical Comedy “Cinderella” produced the previous day and will be held on the same theme, in the presence of the main artists and the production team of the musical, with many surprises!
The goal, with the support of H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco, will be to raise awareness among the eminent personalities present about the cause we support.
An exceptional raffle will be organized, the entire proceeds of which will enable us to accomplish numerous projects for children suffering from serious illnesses, disabilities, poverty, and who are experiencing exclusion.
The funds raised this year will contribute to the realization of our 2012 project: “Bringing smiles back to the children of the ‘Maison de l’Enfance Fondation Patronage Saint Pierre ACTES’ in La Trinité by rearranging the play area of the establishment.”
