Cinderella is a maid to her grumpy Stepmother Madame Pompost and her spoiled rotten sisters who make her spend all her time cooking and scrubbing and cleaning and mending, with only her sleepy Kitty the Cat there to keep her company. But a mischievous Court Jester, his dog Spot, and a magical Fairy Godfather fresh out of Madame Sweet-tart’s Fairy Godperson School of Magic believes that wonderful things can happen if you don’t lose faith - even if you feel like there’s nothing left to believe in. A Royal Prince who cannot dance longs to meet someone special. He holds a palace ball where his father, the King, instructs him to dance with every lady there to find his princess. With your help, our young Fairy Godfather magically takes Cinderella, the Jester, Spot the Dog, and Kitty the Cat to the ball, where Cinderella and The Prince dance under the twinkling stars like something in a dream. But when Fairy Godfather’s magic runs out and Cinderella flees into the night, The Prince is left behind with a single glass slipper. With his heart true and his head spinning, he must search the kingdom for his bride…
