La Cenerentola - The Tale of Cenerentola (Cinderella)

Rossini's version of a classic fairytale is filled with infectious bel canto musical thrills. Presented at the architectural gem, Kimo Theatre, listen and watch as the gentle Cenerentola suffers the cruelty of her heartless but hilariously funny step-family. Revel as the neglected maiden falls in love with her Prince who is disguised as his own servant. No mice, pumpkins, glass slippers or magic here, the well-known outcome is orchestrated by the Prince's wise mentor with a pair of bracelets to identify the lovers. Delight in this comedy where forgiveness and benevolence triumph over cruelty and greed.

This architectural gem earned its unusual name when Isleta Pueblo governor, Pablo Abeita, suggested KiMo, which means "king of its kind" The theater's pueblo/deco architectural style and lavish interior murals make it a true picture palace. Built in 1927 it was one of the main stopping centers during the glory days of Route 66 (Central Avenue). Young entertainers who graced its stage included the likes of Vivian Vance, Gloria Swanson, Tom Mix and Ginger Rogers. The KiMo seats 700 comfortably with an orchestra pit for 30-40 musicians.
