Classic Fairy Tales byTHE BROTHERS GRIMM & HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN

“CINDERELLA” (Program A), based on one of the Brothers Grimm most popular tales, is the timeless story of a young girl dispossessed by her murderous Stepmother and wicked Stepsisters.  Will Cinderella’s friendship with two magical birds help her go to the Three Day  Ball? Will she get to meet the charming Prince Dreamboat and compare notes with him on Ornithology?  Will the King and Queen finally be able to retire to Boca?  And what about that slipper?

“THE TINDERBOX” (Program B) by Hans Christian Andersen features a Pure-hearted Soldier, an enchanted forest, a Wicked Witch, a Beautiful (but lonesome) Princess, and three unforgettable Dogs who bring whatever one desires when summoned by the magical Tinderbox.
