Cinderella – A Tanglewood Marionettes Production
Set in the eighteenth century and featuring a dozen lavishly costumed 30” marionettes, this production of Cinderella is a Tanglewood Marionettes showpiece. The story unfolds as the pages of a giant book open to reveal each beautifully painted setting—the village square, the rustic kitchen, the magnificent ballroom, and many more. All your favorite characters are here, from gentle Cinderella to the bumptious stepsisters and the charming Prince, and each marionette is manipulated with precision and grace by their talented puppeteers.
This telling is based on the original beloved tale but with a few new surprises: Cinderella’s conveyance to the ball is NOT the traditional horse-drawn coach, and when all hope seems lost, a clever little bluebird saves the day! A classic fairy tale told with wit and style, Cinderella is sure to please audiences of all ages.
