The wonderful Kitsap Forest Theater is presenting Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella (the Broadway version) as their second show of 2024.
Here’s what the organizers have to say about the musical:
Rodgers + Hammerstein’s Cinderella is the new Broadway adaptation of the classic musical. This contemporary take on the classic tale features Rodgers + Hammerstein’s most beloved songs alongside an up-to-date, hilarious and romantic libretto by Tony Award nominee Douglas Carter Beane. He used the actual fairy tale by Charles Perrault as his source material (different from the version that we are familiar with) which gives Cinderella motivation and a more fleshed out character.
Beane’s 2013 adaptation of this well-loved classic invites us to build a better, kinder world together. He has revised the plot so that Cinderella is not merely a kind maiden in distress, but a curious young woman becoming aware of injustices beyond her own shabby treatment. When Cinderella meets a dragon-slaying young prince who is just assuming control of his government, Ella helps spark transformation and empower the disenfranchised in their kingdom. As in Hammerstein’s original book, her wicked stepmother and stepsisters are funnier and less cartoonishly cruel than in the Disney version.
Be transported back to your childhood as you rediscover some of Rodgers + Hammerstein’s most beloved songs, including “In My Own Little Corner,” “Impossible/It’s Possible” and “Ten Minutes Ago,” in this hilarious and romantic Broadway experience for anyone who’s ever had a wish, a dream… or a really great pair of shoes. This timeless musical treasure will inspire and delight the whole family.
