According to Director and Co-Choreographer Timothy Higgins, “This production is special for many reasons, especially the musical score by Rodger's & Hammerstein! Audiences will hear all the beloved songs that generations have come to love.”

This 2013 Broadway adaptation by Douglas Carter Beane has all the elements of the beloved classic – but with a modern twist. The storyline blends classic and modern attributes, introduces hilarious moments, several new characters, and yet remains the heartfelt tale of a resilient, caring, smart and kind woman, Cinderella, who falls in love with her prince. The magical onstage transformations and charming story will amaze audiences of all ages.

Grosse Pointe Theatre’s production of Rogers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of The Rodgers & Hammerstein Organization.

Higgins invites everyone to experience this magical production that will enchant audiences with this story’s message of hope, love, and kindness.

“I hope audiences will feel a glow in their hearts and smile joyfully after seeing this production. And perhaps the kindness that Cinderella brings to the kingdom will inspire us to do the same.”
