Dallas Children's Theater proudly presents John Steptoe's, MUFARO'S BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS, a gorgeous Caldecott Award winning Cinderella tale that celebrates goodness, generosity, love and traditional African song. Adapted for the stage by Karen Abbott, MUFARO'S BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS is part of the Discovery Theater Series for Families at PlayhouseSquare. When a great African king desires a wife, only the most perfect maidens in the land are invited to meet him. Mufaro, a dignified and caring African villager, has two beautiful daughters. When he leaves for the hunt and the sisters are alone, Manyara is always angry, while Nyasha is positive and kind. Chenzira, a messenger, brings word that the Great King is inviting all of the 'Most Worthy and Beautiful Daughters in the Land to appear before him' so that he might choose his Queen. Mufaro is very pleased that both of his daughters should be selected and agrees to accompany them at sunrise. That night, Manyara, believing herself better and prettier than her sister, sets out alone so that she can be presented to the king first. What will happen to each girl as she responds to hooting owls, enchanted trees laughing and the other strange beings she encounters along the way? DCT's Executive Artistic Director and director of the play, Robyn Flatt, states, 'This wonderful folktale celebrates virtue and kindness of the heart. Its ethical lesson is simple yet powerful: ?as you sow so shall you reap', or as a hungry beggar in the play says, ?pretty is as pretty does'.'
