Cinderella Reduced Orchestration

I will be playing a reduced orchestration of Prokofiev's Cinderella ballet in the next week or so. Generally in reduced orchestrations, the tuba is the first to go, but apparently not in this case. Has anyone played this ballet in a reduced orchestration and know what the part is like? I can't get ahold of the part before the first rehearsal, so if anyone has a copy of the ballet part, I would appreciate it if you would contact me.

Thanks.

The Milwaukee Ballet according to some brass posting long ago permanently works with reduced orchestrations:

2-2-2-1

when it comes to brasses.

They may be worth asking:
