Silk and Cinders: A Cinderella Story is a brand new musical for the whole family. It’s a fun and funny mash up of the classic stories “Cinderella” and “The Emperor’s New Clothes”. Silk and Cinders was written by Julie and Dan Izzo with music by Kelly Izzo Shapiro. In the story, a vain and foolish king rules the kingdom where Cinderella endures the abuse of her stepmother and stepsisters. The king’s son, Prince Harry, detests his father’s selfishness and greed. He wants to help the people who are struggling under his father’s oppressive rule but doesn’t know how. The Prince and Cinderella join to help each other, but things aren’t always what they seem and their happy ever after will surprise.
