The timeless enchantment of a magical fairy tale is reborn with the Rodgers & Hammerstein hallmarks of originality, charm, and elegance. As adapted for the stage, with great warmth and more than a touch of hilarity, this romantic fairy tale still warms the hearts of children and adults alike.

Hadley Smith ’26 plays the title role of Cinderella. Getting her to the ball in time is Madeline Mayo ’28 as the Fairy Godmother. Apollo Birney ’26 is the quite smitten Prince Christopher. Lila Fournier ’28 as the Stepmother and her daughters Grace (Mia Dumont ‘30) and Joy (Eva Cusano ’26) make life more than difficult for all at every turn.
