Classic fairytale story, a ‘rags to riches’ tale about a kind-hearted girl who suffers various hardships only to marry the Prince of the kingdom.
Why is Cinderella called Cinderella?
The ‘rags to riches’ transformation comes about when Cinders, who wishes to attend the royal ball, has her wish granted and subsequently meets the Prince. Although she has to flee the ball and return home – losing one of her slippers in the process – the Prince searches for and finds her, thanks to what is perhaps the most romantic shoe-fitting in all of literature!

This ingenious adaptation of a much-loved story features a host of animal puppets, sing-along songs and madcap comic routines. It’s a real treat for the whole family with no scary bits whatsoever!
Stuff and Nonsense are leaders in family theatre and Director Niki McCretton has children’s boundless curiosity in her heart and family connection as her mission.
