Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella is a musical in two acts with music by Richard Rogers, lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II and a book by Douglas Carter Beane based partly on Hammerstein’s 1957 television adaptation. The story is derived from the fairy tale Cinderella by Charles Perrault. It concerns a young woman forced into a life of servitude by her cruel stepmother and selfish stepsisters. She dreams of a better life, and with the help of her Fairy Godmother, Cinderella is transformed into an elegant young lady and is able to attend the ball to meet her Prince. In this version, however, she opens the Prince’s eyes to injustice in his kingdom
Performed at Dillard Performing Arts Center at the University of Lynchburg.
