This free theatre experience is presented by Pacific Opera Project (POP) and the City of West Hollywood's Arts Division. Taking the best music and funniest scenes from both Massenet's Cendrillon and Rossini's Cenerentola, and adding in a little bit of POP magic, POP's Cinderella Story tells a young girl's whirlwind love story from housemaid to princess. With twists, turns, and tricks at every corner, and featuring a handsome prince charming, two very evil stepsisters, and an overly dramatic king, this hilarious new take is bound to leave you feeling "happily ever after!"
POP's family-friendly 90-minute production of Cinderella Story is directed by Jack Zager and will feature cast members Lydia Brown, Jessica Gonzalez-Rodriguez, Byron Mayes, Christina Pezzarossi, Dominic Salvati, Emily Scott, and Christopher Walters, and will be sung in English with a live piano.
