One of the most beloved fairy tales ever told gets a magical PANTO theatrical treatment, transforming Cinderella’s classic story into an interactive experience filled with laughter, and music.

A story that never gets old

Cinderella’s journey from bullied stepsister to royal ball guest is as enchanting as ever, complete with a Fairy Godmother, a glass slipper, and a midnight deadline that changes everything. The classic beats are all here, delivered with warmth and wonder.

Built for the classroom, made for the stage

Add audience participation, playful surprises, and a happy ending that’s absolutely worth the wait, and you have a theatrical experience all students will enjoy.

What teachers are saying

“Our students loved the performance! The students were able to make connections to our unit on Fairy Tales. They also were excited about all of the elements of a live theatrical performance that many of them have never seen before, such as set changes and lights. My students had a lot to say about the lines that made them laugh, and they were bursting with energy the rest of the day.”

Caldwell–West Caldwell
