"An Enchanting Cinderella!…captivates its young audience, highlighted by fast pacing, fancy costuming and a lovely, unweepy Cinderella…she’s no slouch with a slightly risqué put-down, either, particularly within the context of Rudie and DeCarlo’s trademark Gilbert & Sullivan comic lyrics…The Stepsisters’ braying laughter and clowning arrogance are a hit!” L.A. TIMES
CINDERELLA, a delightfully romantic original twist on the classic story, has all the makings of a perfect fairytale for today's generation: a handsome prince (who yearns to be loved for himself, not his royal position), vain stepsisters (who ultimately realize looks really aren't everything), a controlling (but genuinely well-meaning) stepmother and a refreshingly independent feisty Cinderella.
“This extraordinary company creates a strange new brand of excitement…a brilliant Gilbert and Sullivan parody…Truly imaginative and entertaining, this play has all its spark plugs firing.” LA PARENT
The original internationally-acclaimed Rudie-DeCarlo musical CINDERELLA debuted as part of the Playhouse repertoire in 1984, and after nearly two dozen tours to England, Alaska and Japan, after delighting more than a quarter of a million audience members, young and old, to date, has become the single most requested Santa Monica Playhouse Musical on three continents!
“A children’s show that will delight children but won’t bore adults even if they think they have seen every possible twist on the Cinderella story.” reviewplays.com
“No person in the audience, young or old, was left unsatisfied...You will LOVE this play." HOWEE MOUSE GAZETTE
“As always, there is a magical and romantic quality about the Family Theatre which lends a special resonance to any work for children produced there. Parents and children accustomed to conventional retellings of the familiar classic tale of Cinderella will warmly welcome this innovative musical version.” DRAMA-LOGUE
“A delight for the entire family!” L.A. SPLASH
“Witty! Hip!” Anchorage Daily News
“Cinderella delivers a top-quality production.” PONY RIDE
