orking in advertising and animation in
Manhattan was a natural outlet for a girl
who grew up in Brooklyn and loved to
draw. Fresh out of art school, she worked for all the
big advertising agencies and for nine live-action
and animation studios before she was 24 years old.
So fresh-faced Bonnie Gordon made her way
in the advertising world, in the time and place
depicted in AMC-TV’s popular program Mad
Men. But far from being the perky secretary to
the hard-drinking,
womanizing men,
she stood strong as one of only a few female artists
on Madison Avenue. Her employers were respectful
and very good to her, protecting her from art
directors with inappropriate intentions.
Years later, she found out, much to her
surprise, who her employers really were. “What I
didn’t know at the time was that I worked for the
Mafia,” she says. Despite the reputation of New
York’s crime syndicate in the 1960s, these men
helped keep Bonnie safe, and they were kind and
appreciative of her artwork. “I have only nice things
to say about them. I adored them.”

Synopsis
by Matthew Leone
Act I
Madame de la Haltière’s Mansion
Courtier Pandolfe and his second wife, Madame de la Haltière, are busy preparing
for a grand ball at the King’s palace. As the servants complain of Madame’s badgering,
Pandolfe longs for happier times. He wonders why he gave up a peaceful existence
with his daughter, Lucette (Cendrillon), to marry the spiteful Madame Haltière. He
also laments over Madame’s conceited daughters, Noémie and Dorothée, as well as
the unfortunate fate that has befallen his daughter due to the marriage. Madame
Haltière and her daughters go over their plan to attract Prince Charming’s attention
at the ball and, joined by a gloomy Pandolfe, they depart for the King’s palace. Shortly
afterward, Cendrillon ponders her circumstances—she would love to attend the ball,
but her housework beckons. After she falls asleep, the Fairy appears and commands
her sprites to fashion a gown and carriage for Cendrillon. After the Fairy awakens her,
Cendrillon is excited to attend the ball but worries that she will be recognized. The
Fairy then gives her a crystal slipper, which will make her unrecognizable, and she
also warns Cendrillon that she must return home by midnight. Cendrillon promises
the Fairy she will return on time and then departs for the ball.
Act II
The King’s Palace
The ball has begun, although Prince Charming is glum, despite the encouragement
from the Master of Ceremonies and his Courtiers. As the Prince longs for true love,
the King enters and reminds his son that he must choose a bride. A “suite dansante”
signals the entry of numerous guests, including Pandolfe, Madame Haltière, and her
excited daughters. Suddenly, Cendrillon enters, and, while Haltière and her daughters
scoff at the new arrival, the other guests—including the Prince—are entranced by her
appearance. Prince Charming approaches Cendrillon and courts her, and, although
Cendrillon is initially evasive, love soon blossoms between them. Suddenly, the clock
strikes midnight, and Cendrillon quickly departs, leaving the stunned Prince behind.
Act III
Scene 1: Madame de la Haltière’s Mansion
Cendrillon returns home, but she is troubled—in her hasty departure, she
lost the crystal slipper. Shortly thereafter, Pandolfe, Madame Haltière, Noémie,
and Dorothée enter. They are engaged in a heated discussion over the mysterious
guest that captivated Charming’s attention. Cendrillon joins in, sensing her father’s
discomfort. Discussion soon turns to argument, and Madame Haltière says that the
Prince ultimately rejected the mysterious guest after the ball. This last comment leaves
Cendrillon disturbed and forces Pandolfe to angrily order his wife and stepdaughters
to their rooms. Pandolfe consoles Cendrillon, promising they will return to his
country home to find peace again. However, Cendrillon believes her stepmother’s
lies and resolves to run away to die and end her father’s suffering. She rushes off as
lightning fills the sky.
Scene 2: The Fairy’s Domain
At a great oak tree in an enchanted forest, sprites inform the Fairy of Cendrillon
and the Prince’s unfortunate predicaments. The Fairy then draws Cendrillon and the
Prince together at the oak tree, concealing their identities from one another with a
wall of clover. The Prince tells of his experience at the ball, in which a mysterious
woman captured his heart, only to leave suddenly at midnight. As their conversation
unfolds, they both recognize each other’s identities. The Fairy removes the clover
barrier (at their insistence), and they share a passionate embrace. As the sprites gather
around, a magic sleep overtakes them.

Act IV
Scene 1: The Terrace of Cinderella’s Home
Some time has passed. Pandolfe keeps vigil over his daughter, who was found
months earlier by a stream, delirious. He convinces her that the story she had told
him—about the Fairy, the Prince, the crystal slipper—was simply a dream. As
they celebrate spring and the beauty of nature, Madame Haltière arrives. The King
has summoned ladies from across the lands (including Madame Haltière and her
daughters) to claim the crystal slipper. If the slipper’s owner is not found, the Prince
will die of despair. Cendrillon, recognizing her supposed dream was actually real,
begs for the Fairy’s help so she can go to the palace.
Scene 2: The King’s Palace
Various princesses and ladies of rank enter the court. Prince Charming is on
the verge of fainting from his despair when suddenly Cendrillon appears. The crowd
looks on in amazement, and the Prince, recognizing Cendrillon, embraces her as
they express their love for one another. Pandolfe arrives with Madame Haltière and
her daughters. Since Cendrillon is not wearing the crystal slipper, her identity is
revealed to her family. The King, the court, Pandolfe, and even Madame Haltière
praise the reunited couple. As Pandolfe announces that everything has ended happily,
the ensemble bids the audience farewell, hoping that we have enjoyed the fairy tale.

Program Notes
by Virginia Whealton
The story of Cinderella is so well known that it hardly seems to need introduction:
a beautiful, kind, hardworking girl, mistreated by her stepmother and stepsisters,
goes to a ball and wins the heart of a prince with the help of her fairy godmother
and a glass slipper. Yet Jules Massenet’s Cendrillon (1899) was not merely meant to
tell the tale of a wronged but ultimately triumphant heroine. Instead, in the manner
of the French tradition of opéra-féerie (fairy opera), all components of Massenet’s
Cendrillon—music, dance, and scenic display—come together to offer a musical and
visual spectacle of an enchanted, long-ago world. As if to make sure that nobody
could mistake the operatic genre of Cendrillon, the work closes with the chorus, “The
play is over. We have done our best to take you away to Fairyland!” It should come as
no surprise, then, that Massenet called Cendrillon not an opera but a conte de fées—a
fairy tale.
Massenet’s librettist, Henri Cain, created a plot that offered many opportunities
to explore the fantastic delights of fairyland. Cain based his libretto of Cendrillon
on the version of Cinderella written by Charles Perrault, a seventeenth-century
author who crafted elegant versions of many old folktales. Perrault’s Cendrillon was
a compact work, and a poem at the end of the tale summarized its morals. The first:
graciousness supersedes beauty and is a true gift of the fairies. The second: even those
endowed with the best talents may not succeed without the help of a fairy godmother
(quite a moral, indeed!). Although Cain retained the skeleton of Perrault’s plot,
which differs from some modern versions of the tale in that Cendrillon’s father is not
dead but merely unable to confront his overbearing wife, he abandoned the didactic
flavor of the story in favor of creating luxurious tableaux. For example, spirits and
elves, and not just the Fairy Godmother, come to Cendrillon’s aid as she prepares for
the ball. (In this opera, Cendrillon’s true and rightful name is Lucette; however, her
stepfamily mockingly calls her “Cendrillon” after the cinders of the hearth by which
she often sits.) In Act III, Scene 4, Cain adds a dream-like sequence in which both
Cendrillon and Prince Charming wander into the domain of the fairies after having
been separated at the ball. Massenet’s music perfectly evokes this ethereal realm, as
the Fairy Godmother sings haunting vocalises atop a faint, sometimes whispering,
sometimes wordless chorus of the spirits.
Although Cain creates fantastical journeys into fairyland, he also portrays the
foibles and faults of the human world. In the first act, he satirizes Cendrillon’s family,
and Massenet’s music complements Cain’s libretto. In Act I, Scene 2, Pandolphe,
Cendrillon’s henpecked father, expresses his frustration with his wife and his desire
to be a master rather than a subject. Massenet gives Pandolphe nervous buffa patter,
suggesting that his situation is at least partly comic. When Pandolphe considers
the miseries of his daughter, however, he sings in a more lyrical and intimate style,
though he lacks the melodic sensitivity, harmonic color, and sensitive scoring that
characterize Massenet’s dramatic writing at its finest. Pandolphe’s weak music mirrors
his weak character. In the following scene, Cendrillon’s stepmother enters to a grand,
regal fanfare, but she too quickly becomes a comic figure as she and her daughters
chatter about the upcoming ball and sing along with an affected, slightly off kilter,
and rather waltz-like minuet.
Only in Act I, Scene 5, with Cendrillon’s first aria, does a more serious and
non-caricatured tone set in. Sitting by the fire, Cendrillon repeatedly sings a wistful,
sinuous melody, accompanied by a delicate filigree and high drone-like shimmer. Yet
in between repetitions of her melancholy tune, she bursts into a joyous, waltz-like
strain. From her first appearance, Cendrillon is a character of emotional breadth.
Massenet’s writing for her, from this hearth song to her final duet with Prince
Charming, “Vous êtes mon Prince charmant” (Act IV, Scene 3), showcases the
expressive power that is the hallmark of his operatic writing.
Act II, set at the ball, originally included a series of dances, or entrées. These
added to the visual spectacle of Cendrillon, and they were a nod to the long tradition
of character dances in French opera, in which different people or groups of people
present themselves in succession. Not all of the entrées will be performed this evening,
but you will hear the king’s Rigadoun. This dance, antiquated even in Massenet’s own
time, evokes Cendrillon’s “long ago” world.
The premiere of Cendrillon on May 24, 1899, at the Opéra-Comique in Paris
was nothing short of triumphant. The opera enjoyed great success in France and
abroad until World War I. But as the twentieth century progressed, performances of
Cendrillon dwindled. Ironically, the very qualities that made Cendrillon so appealing
to its original audiences have since caused it to be compared negatively to other
Massenet operas, such as Manon (1884) and Thaïs (1894), which ostensibly carry
heavier dramatic weight. The negative critical response aside, Cendrillon is a poignant
reflection of the world into which it was born, France’s belle époque, or beautiful
age, at the turn of the last century. Like the art nouveau glass of Gallé, the jewelry
René Lalique, or the furniture of Gaillard, Cendrillon reflects a society that resisted
the coldness of industrialism by seeking to infuse everyday life with beauty, mystery,
and fantasy.
Director’s Notes
“Cendrillon,” or “Nothing is Impossible”
by Albert-André Lheureux
“Coeur sans amour, printemps sans roses! ...
Heart void of love, and spring bare of flowers!”
If you’ve found love, do not avoid it, live completely in it—you should not
miss true love! Life without a deep love is not a life. Each of us should find one’s
charming Prince or Princess. We need hope. We also need to dream another world
where violence and hate would be banished and where pure love would have its full
place. The fairy says in Massenet’s Cendrillon, “Ah, now love! For an hour, let it seem
that you love in a dream!”
Jules Massenet’s lyrical work Cendrillon is also the hidden story of a spoiled
marriage, which led to separation. The child from this first marriage (Lucette/
Cendrille/Cendrillon) was put aside by her stepmother, herself already being the
mother of two children. But Cendrillon deserves joy, light, and a successful life also.
Fortunately, nothing is impossible, and the dream will come true in the rest of the
story.
Who out of seven billion people in the world does not know Perrault’s tale or
the masterpiece by Walt Disney? Yes, for all of us, it is first of all a fairy tale. But, in
the final analysis, Cendrillon’s story also touches—as in a game—upon the complex
relationships of recomposed families, especially in Jules Massenet’s and librettist
Henri Cains’ work.
The father does not have the power (which is usually du côté de la barbe, or
“on the side of the beard”) in this new family. Unfortunately, he let little Lucette—
referred to as Cendrille or Cendrillon—into the clutches of his new wife, Madame de
la Haltière, which is a disaster. Although living as a le grillon du Foyer, or domestic,
she still seeks fulfillment.
This is a sparkling work full of vibrant music, intelligence, and sensitivity, in
which drama alternates with humor. Never before had Massenet found such funny
verve.
This work, looking like lace, and this music, finely nuanced, do not disprove
the critics of the end of the nineteenth-century, who often said that this opera was
“feminine” thanks to its subtleties, sensitivity, and mystery. The work irradiates from
inside; a soft light, often nostalgic, emanates from these sublime pages.
The adaptation of Perrault’s tale into a wonderful theatrical poem by Henri Cain
brings two different worlds together—one made of wonder and enchantment, the
other made out of reality with its psychological dimension. The audience may even
question dream and reality, as Cendrillon and her father do.
Massenet and Cain bring back for us childhood and our light dreams but also
our first nightmares in the middle of agitated nights. What immense talents and what
great poetry are put together!
The characters of the ultimately burlesque mother, two daughters, and court
dignitaries—puppets full of desire for power, ambition, or gold—are a sharp
contradiction with the characters of Cendrillon and her father, who are humanity
itself.
As for the fairy and her acolytes—the spirits—through their magic enchantments,
they succeed to humanely eliminate sadness and confusion, which very often invade
each of our lives. They even make Prince Charming, a child spoiled by his father and
his entourage, friendly. He is deeply moving in his amorous quest.
How many brainwaves are needed (the gorgeous choirs that sometimes are heard
in the distance, and so many other rare pearls) in order to allow the two lovers to find
each other and say, “De nous, l’Amour fera des Dieux.” (“And love shall make us both
divine.”), as well as “Je t’aime et je t’aimerai toujours.” (“I love you, and I’ll always love
you.”).
Massenet’s Cendrillon has a happy ending—like in Perrault and Disney—but
also has a dramatic aspect that was not really in the original tale, which is developed
here thanks to a concrete approach towards reality and its hazards.
Ultimately, what should a stage director do in front of such a masterpiece,
oscillating between dream and reality, to be faithful to the work and to give way to its
streams in order to best serve its genius and the particular lights (sometimes new) on
a universal myth? Yes, dream is close to reality—we should believe it.
On Candide’s lips, Voltaire had spoken of the “Meilleur des mondes possibles”
(“Best of possible worlds”). Leonard Bernstein also has transposed it in music, in one
of the most beautiful musicals ever written.
Through these two works and their messages, let’s try to find some clues to life.
A human life on this earth often looks like a labyrinth in which it is difficult to find
a positive progression. Let’s try, in particular through the example of Cendrillon, to
become more human and to more often turn towards those in pain. Because egoism
contributes to nothing but a person’s drying out. Let’s live happiness we build at every
meeting in our lives, and let’s spread it around us. Let’s try, during our short passage
on earth, to live in sharing and in love with one another.
Enjoy the evening with Massenet, his enchanting music, and Perrault. And, first
of all, with the wonderful young artists I have had the pleasure to direct—they who
have the joy of waking up to the true wealth of our humanity: art and beauty.
