Photos: Fairytale Musical MY TRUE LOVE Begins Performances Off-Broadway

The Players Theatre hosts the Off-Broadway Premiere of MY TRUE LOVE A Perfect Musical Fairytale by author and music director Ben Boecker. See photos from the production. 

This new musical comedy follows Cedarella, a witch who dreams of falling in love with a Perfect Prince, so she runs away from home to seek her One True Love in a Magic Land called ... "Magicland!"  Ultimately, Cedarella must decide if she is willing to let go of the fairytale stereotypes of love she grew up with to make room for a real love that is honest, true, and incredibly empowering.

Appropriate for all ages, MY TRUE LOVE features a rollicking pop comedy score, a fast-paced book, and nonstop laughs, all while exploring complex themes including consent, empowerment and embracing your identity.  

Directed by Carolyn Popadin, MY TRUE LOVE stars Mairead Connor (as Cedarella), Julian Schenker, Ruben Fernandez, Andrew McNamara, Camille Larsen, Livi Rose, Kate Keating, Phoenix Gould, Lexi Cid, and Joe Kassner. The production features costumes by Chloe Levy, lighting by Shino Frances, set by Michael Arriaga, choreography by Lauren Bobrow, and props and stage management by Lorrie Depellegrini. It is co-produced by Marilyn de Poto, TJ Shelton, Johanan Merino, Noah Steiner, Gabi Faye, Ryan Bauer-Walsh, and Our Love Fitz Productions.
