Cinderella by African American Shakespeare

Enjoy the laughter this holiday season with the African-American Shakespeare Company’s original production of Cinderella.

Delighting audiences for over 20 years, this heartwarming production of the lowly scullery maid who doesn’t know her own value. Only when a special invitation to the palace arrives, does Cinderella begin to dream of something more, but her stepmother and (oddly masculine) stepsisters have different plans for our heroine.

Dreams do come true… with the help of a sassy fairy godmother who can make the magic happen. A side-splitting comedy that will have all ages with tears of laughter in their eyes and warmth in their hearts this holiday.

CelebrateFamily.us Best Bet

Marian’s Note: Cinderella by African American Shakespeare is a Christmas tradition in our family.  I recommend this show for families of all ages, even my teen daughter loves the show!  Take my advice and go!  I can’t recommend this production highly enough.
