The Moscow Festival Ballet is set to perform the classic tale of Cinderella at McCain Auditorium this Sunday at 7:30 p.m. This is the final show in the McCain Performance Series.
Tom Holmberg, executive director of McCain Auditorium and creator of the McCainKSU fan page on Facebook.com, said McCain is fortunate to present some of the finest dancers from Russia performing a classic tale through the magic and splendor of classic ballet.
