In this spellbinding retelling of the classic folk tale, we’re introduced to some familiar characters: a young, neglected heroine, a wicked stepfamily, and a handsome prince in search of a wife and a missing slipper. But wait! There are also three magical dresses, a wish-giving tree, and help for Cinderella from a very unexpected source…
Packed with thrilling theatricality, delightful comedy and charming original songs, this adaptation of Cinderella refreshes the story we all know and love.
"Full of wit, shot through with poignancy, endlessly inventive and beautiful to look at…sends you home on a huge high."
—Chichester Observer
"A magical retelling in all its thrilling theatricality and charming comedic glory…hauntingly beautiful."
—Stage Masters
