Rodgers + Hammerstein's Cinderella at Duluth Playhouse

Duluth Playhouse presents Rodgers + Hammerstein’s Cinderella, an exciting new take on the beloved classic from the creators of The Sound of Music, running December 6 - 22, 2024 at the NorShor Theatre. Featuring a sweeping score that includes “In My Own Little Corner,” “Impossible,” and “Ten Minutes Ago,” this magical Broadway musical is guaranteed to be the holiday event of the season. 

In Douglas Carter Beane's contemporary adaptation, Ella is a servant in her own home, yearning to break free from the drudgery of life under her stepmother's control. With the help of her Fairy Godmother, Ella’s dreams of attending the royal ball come true—but only if she returns home before midnight. Along the way, she encounters Prince Topher, a young ruler in search of purpose and love. Through their journey together, they discover not only romance but the power of kindness and courage to create a better future for everyone in the kingdom.

New characters, surprising twists, and jaw-dropping transformations will put a spell on a whole new generation of theatergoers who believe in magic and the power of possibility.
