Theatre Artists Studio: Cinderella @ Theatre Artists Studio
Dec 13 @ 2:00 pm

Theatre Artists Studio presents Cinderella.

A fresh new take on the fairytale favorite, this delightful new musical offers a rollicking good time for the whole family. Both Cinderella and Prince Bobby only want to dance – specifically TAP dance in a show! While his parents want him to find a wife, Bobby uses the “ball” as an audition to find a dancing partner. Join our tap-dancing Cinderella and her Prince; their Dance Instructor/Fairy Godmother, Madam Tatyana; the suave and debonair Armando and the rest of the zany cast for this fast-paced and fun musical romp. With numbers like I Just Wanna Dance, I Can Do Anything, Practice Makes Perfect and The Show Must Go on, you’ll be humming and toe-tapping all the way home.

He is a former Associated Press correspondent and a regular contributor to Tablet Magazine. Two essays he wrote about media coverage of Israel after the 2014 Gaza War, for Tablet and The Atlantic, triggered intense discussion and have been shared together on Facebook more than 100,000 times.
