(FRENCHTOWN, NJ) -- Cinderella, part of the Children’s Classic Stories repertoire Roxey Ballet is known for, features unforgettable characters, original choreography by Mark Roxey, stunning costumes and sets, and masterful lighting. Viewers of all ages will delight in the unfolding of Cinderella's fairy tale story. With two matinee performances (May 6-7), a school show (May 5) and a sensory-friendly show (April 29), Cinderella is a family-friendly production you won’t want to miss.

After being tormented by her wicked, yet comedic, stepsisters, Cinderella is treated to a royal transformation courtesy of her Fairy Godmother, resulting in the meeting of her true love at the ball.

Says Artistic Director Mark Roxey, “Roxey Ballet’s Cinderella is a production that is created for all ages. It is funny, poignant, and has some of the most beautiful choreographic sequences of all the classics. The costumes and sets are magnificent.”

The cast of Cinderella is a blend of international professional dancers and students from local towns that include New Hope, Lambertville, Doylestown, Flemington, Newtown, Stockton, Hopewell, Lawrenceville, Pennington, Ewing, and Princeton. Cinderella will be performed May 6-7 at 2:00pm at the Villa Victoria Theater, 376 W Upper Ferry Rd, Ewing, NJ with a school show on May 5th at 10:00am.
