The Story
Step into the magical world of Cinderella and see if the shoe fits. Meet mice that sing and dance while getting Cinderella to the ball in a magic pumpkin all arranged by her fairy Godmother. But the true magic is unforgetable memories you will create with your family – memories that will last a lifetime!.
This beautiful musical by Michael Sgouros & Brenda Bell is based on the beloved classic fairy tale. Poor Cinderella, she works all day, has to deal with those awful step-sisters and then sleeps in the cinders. But, don’t be too sad because Cinderella is one smart cookie. She’ll make it to the Prince’s ball and capture his heart. Sure, she may lose one of her shoes, but what she gains is worth more than gold!
All matinee performances include the Interactive Family Workshop!
