INDIANAPOLIS — Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre’s Pyramid Players present the classic fairy tale Cinderella live on stage select dates starting through March 17.
This Prince Street Players production of Cinderella is a magical retelling of the beloved story in a tuneful, fast-paced English pantomime-style comedy.
A godmother, of the fairy variety, inquires of her two helpers about the neediest case in the kingdom. Not surprisingly, they introduce her to Ella, who, after being orphaned, was left in the care of her wicked stepmother and stepsisters. Forced to use the kitchen as a bedroom, Ella can often be found daydreaming among the cinders from the fireplace, inspiring her stepfamily to rename her “Cinderella.” Wand in hand, Godmother sets about to change the girl’s life. With a dash of belief, a sprinkle of magic and a pinch of true love, Cinderella has her life changed for good.
Cinderella is the first production in the 2018 Live Theatre for Kids series at Beef & Boards. Pyramid Players productions are one hour in length and presented without intermission.
