Video: Rodgers and Hammerstein's CINDERELLA at Marriott Theatre
Running through December 29.
Marriott Theatre for Young Audiences concluding its 2024 children’s theatre season with the beloved fairy tale adventure, RODGERS & HAMMERSTEIN’S CINDERELLA, running through December 29, with a press opening today Saturday, November 23. Check out video from the production here.
The one-hour musical journey is directed by Laura Rook, with choreography by Associate Artistic Director Katie Johannigman, and musical direction by Nathan Urdangen. Each performance will be followed by a question-and-answer session with the cast.
In a bustling kingdom, the announcement of the Prince’s Ball stirs excitement as the royal family hopes he will find a bride. Cinderella, burdened by her stepmother and stepsisters' demands, dreams of escaping her life of servitude. With a bit of originality, charm, and elegance (and some magical assistance from her Fairy Godmother!), she attends the ball and enchants the Prince but must flee at midnight, leaving behind a glass slipper. The next day, the Prince searches the kingdom for the slipper's owner, and possibly true love. With wit and whimsy, and packed with beloved songs like “Ten Minutes Ago,” “Impossible,” and “My Own Little Corner,” RODGERS & HAMMERSTEIN’S CINDERELLA will transport a new generation to the miraculous kingdom of dreams come true!
