BWW Review: ELLA ENCHANTED THE MUSICAL at Dallas Children's Theater
January 30, 2019

Ella of Frell is turning the traditional Cinderella story upside down at Dallas Children's Theater! At birth, she was given the 'gift' of obedience which forces her to do anything people command: whether that's hopping on one foot all day or telling her best friend to just go away! As a teenager, strong-willed Ella chooses to reject this lifestyle as her fate and embarks on a quest to break the curse forever. Along the way, feisty Ella must outwit her evil stepsisters, escape hungry ogres, and save the prince before she can claim her real voice. In this fun and spirited musical extravaganza that stays true to the Newbery Honor book, children will discover the power of words while laughing, singing, and dancing out loud.
