Garry Marshall Theatre Extends CINDY & THE DISCO BALL

The original musical comedy is resonating with, and reaching audiences of all ages across Los Angeles. The live band fills the beautiful Burbank theatre with a funky 1970s sound, the songs show off stunning vocals from the dazzling cast. The show stars Christopher De'Vonte Baker, Jasiana Caraballo, Malynda Hale, Hayden Kharrazi, and Abigail Kate Thomas.

Cindy & The Disco Ball: The Musical time-travels back to a decade that was dy-no-mite! Colorful fashion, sensational songs, and disco dance moves bring an all-new Cinderella story to life. The story unfolds at a SoCal High School in 1976 where art across the city is in jeopardy. The message is clear, and is offered from two perspectives - Cindy and her Soul Sister (with essence of a Fairy Godmother, and Solid Gold Diva status).

The two act musical digs into how life in 1976 parallels present day life - especially for young people navigating finding their voices in an ever-changing world. It's a bright and bold journey through teenage self-discovery, high school romance, and four friends who dream up big futures, and are on track to make those dreams a reality.
