If the shoe fits, as they
say…all sorts of wonderful things can happen! In this
hilarious adaptation of the much-loved fairy tale,
Cinderella’s life is turned around in the most unexpected
way!
All Cinderella wants is to see the world, but instead she has to wash and clean all day for her selfish step sisters, until Pierre arrives, a fairy godfather slash stylist, with a penchant for beautiful shoes and an endless supply of face wipes to help make all her dreams come true!
Rachel More is a talented, award winning director and
actor, who has directed several KidzStuff shows, including
Jack and the Beanstalk, The Three Little Pigs and The
Sleeping Beauty (2007). We are very excited to be producing
a play that she has written, for the first time.
Jane Waddell is a very well known Wellington actor and director, recently directing The Year of the Rat and currently starring in The Clean House, both at Circa Theatre. We are thrilled to have her back directing for KidzStuff after many years.
The talented cast includes David Goldthorpe,
who has been in the last two KidzStuff shows, Snow White and
Rose Red (2009) and The Pied Piper (2008). Before that he
played the Earthworm in Fortune Theatre’s James and the
Giant Peach in Dunedin, toured in Songs of the Sea with
Capital E in 2007 and appeared in Troy (the musical) at
Circa Theatre. Jessica Robinson, who was last seen at
KidzStuff as mean Mayor Moneybags in The Pied Piper and in
The Sleeping Beauty (KidzStuff 2007), but most recently as
George Orwell’s mistress in The Year of the Rat at Circa,
also directed by Jane Waddell. Gavin Rutherford, who has
appeared in many productions, including Red Riding Hood –
The Pantomime (2008) and recently, Rock ‘n Roll at Circa
and made his KidzStuff debut in The Princess and the Pea
(2006) and Bryony Skillington, who has just finished filming
a 26 episode children’s sitcom for English Television and
is back with KidzStuff after thoroughly entertaining
audiences in Puss ‘n Boots and The Pied Piper (2008).
