Cinderella

"Pick of the month!" Show Time Magazine

The beloved Rudie-DeCarlo musical CINDERELLA is getting a stunning multi-media makeover to kick off the 2022 Open-Again Summer Family Theatre Series. It’s Cinderella like you’ve never seen her before, with new songs, hilarious special FX, a silent movie segment that will have you falling off your couch, dazzling costumes, amazing magical prestidigitation, and a story about being true to your dreams and loving yourself as you are that's as true to today as ever before.

"A delight for the entire family!" LA Splash

CINDERELLA has all the makings of a perfect fairytale for today's generation: a handsome prince (who yearns to be loved for himself, not his royal position), silly stepsisters (who ultimately discover that looks really aren't everything), a controlling (but genuinely well-meaning) stepmother and a refreshingly independent, feisty Cinderella.

"An Enchanting Cinderella!…captivates its young audience, highlighted by fast pacing, fancy costuming and a lovely, unweepy Cinderella…she’s no slouch with a slightly risqué put-down, either, particularly within the context of Rudie and DeCarlo’s trademark Gilbert & Sullivan comic lyrics!” L.A.
