Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella is A Lovely Night
CINDERELLA WALTZ investigates the archetypal origins of the world's more popular fairy tale, contrasting the familiar and charming Perrault version with the darker, more ancient and disturbing tale recorded by the brothers Grimm.

And listen closely to see just how many references to other whimsical tales you can catch!
