The Glass Slipper

Upcoming Show: The Glass Slipper

 


Synopsis: Cinderella works and works in her nasty stepmother’s house.  Her silly stepsisters, Brunhilda and Cleopatra, think they’re so beautiful that the prince will marry them both, but the prince spends most of the evening at a palace ball trying to escape from them!  This delightful version introduces us to some playful, new characters:  a fearless mouse, a timid cat, and the amazing Pumpkinhead, who changes into a coach!  The Fairy Godmother is busy tutoring an apprentice but makes time for our heroine.  A touch of incredible — yet easy to stage — magic sends Cinderella off to the palace ball.  Alas, she loses her glass slipper as she tries to escape before midnight arrives.  The prince vows to marry the girl whose foot fits the slipper.  The ladies of the kingdom attempt to squeeze into the tiny shoe.  Cleopatra can only manage one big toe!  Naturally, by the final curtain, Cinderella and the Prince are reunited and the stepsisters get an unexpected comeuppance.
