Corde Players Present: Cinderella’s Glass Slipper(a light-hearted and charming new musical!) Book by Vera Morris Music and Lyrics by Bill Francoeur Directed by Laura Vonder Haar-Bolt All Costumes Designed and Created by Regina MacKinnon Choreography by Mary Stephens (CJ Senior) Student Stage Manager: Gen Bourneuf Synopsis: This delightful musical will charm audiences of all ages. Cinderella works hard
in the home of her cruel stepmother. Her silly stepsisters, Brunhilda and Cleopatra,
see themselves as beautiful and think the prince will marry them. Of course, the
handsome prince spends most of the evening at a palace ball trying to escape from
them! The story is age old, but you'll meet playful new characters in this fresh
adaptation: a brave mouse, a hesitant cat and the amazing Pumpkinhead, who
changes into a coach! Our Fairy Godmother has her hands full tutoring an
apprentice but still makes time for Cinderella. Amazing (yet simple!) stage magic
sends our heroine off to the palace ball. As we know, she loses her glass slipper
as she tries to run out before the clock strikes midnight. As the ladies of the kingdom
try to fit into the crystal shoe, the prince finally finds the girl he is to marry. This
well-known classic is filled with songs by Bill Francoeur that create their own magic,
such as the prologue "Once Upon a Time," the stepsisters' "Ladies of Fashion"
and Cinderella's "Dream of Tomorrow."
