Dallas College: “Cinderella Eats Rice and Beans” - FREE UNHOSTED event
Details
NOTE: This is an unhosted event suitable for the whole family. It runs from April 29-May 2.
Full title: “Cinderella Eats Rice and Beans: A Salsa Fairy Tale”
From the venue:
“What will happen to Cinderella at the ball … game? That's the surprising climactic question in this contemporary Latin-American Cinderella musical, which delightfully turns the classic fairy tale on its head, telling the story from both Cinderella and the "stepsister's" perspective.
Cinderella, a newcomer from Puerto Rico, comes to visit her "stepsister," Rosa, in the United States. The catch … Cinderella only speaks Spanish and Rosa only speaks English. Will these two girls be able to reach an understanding at the (basket) ball game?
With a fairy godfather and other delightful twists to the original story, Cinderella: A Salsa Fairy Tale crosses language and gender barriers, weaving a subtle lesson on empathy, sportsmanship and respect. Boys and girls will be cheering in their seats.
Admission is free.”
