Temple City High School’s Department of the Performing Arts presents its 46th annual Broadway musical, an enchanting, new production of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella, fully staged at the historic San Gabriel Mission Playhouse.
Performances for Cinderella are Friday & Saturday, March 11 & 12 at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday March 13, at 2:00 p.m. at the Mission Playhouse located at 320 South Mission Drive in San Gabriel.
This timeless enchantment of a magical fairy tale is reborn with the Rodgers & Hammerstein hallmarks of originality, charm and elegance. Originally presented on television in 1957 starring Julie Andrews, Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella was the most widely viewed program in the history of the medium. Its re-creation in 1965 starring Lesley Ann Warren was no less successful in transporting a new generation to the miraculous kingdom of dreams-come-true, and as a second remake in 1997, which starred Brandy as Cinderella and Whitney Houston as her Fairy Godmother. As adapted for the stage, with great warmth and more than a touch of hilarity, the hearts of children and adults alike still soar when the slipper fits. This Enchanted Edition is based on the 1997 Disney teleplay.
Enchanting and magical, Cinderella is a fairy tale fit for all ages!
Cinderella features such lilting tunes as: In My Own Little Corner, The Prince is Giving a Ball, Do I Love You Because You’re Beautiful, Ten Minutes Ago, and many more.
