Originally presented on television in 1957 and starring Julie Andrews, Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella has become one of the most treasured fairy tales of all time. This contemporary stage adaptation breathes new life into the classic story with a witty and romantic script by Tony Award nominee Douglas Carter Beane, alongside beloved songs like “In My Own Little Corner,” “Impossible/It’s Possible,” and “Ten Minutes Ago.”

“People think Cinderella has always been a musical, but this adaptation was written in 2013 for the stage.” said Director and Choreographer Carl Randolph. “There are messages in this piece that are still relevant today and I want audiences to think about not only the magic and dancing, but also the underlying narrative.”
