'Cinderella' on tap at high school

The Sisters High School music department is performing the Rodgers and Hammerstein Broadway musical "Cinderella" Thursday, November 2 through Sunday, November 5 in the SHS auditorium. Show times are 7 p.m. except for a Saturday matinee show at 2 p.m.

Tickets are $8 (18 and under) and $12 (adults), available only at the door, starting one hour before each performance. 

More than 90 students are involved in the production of this classic play. 

The timeless enchantment of a magical fairy tale is reborn with the Rodgers and Hammerstein hallmark of originality, charm and elegance. Originally presented on television in 1957, Cinderella was the most widely viewed program in the history of the medium. Its re-creation in 1965 was no less successful in transporting a new generation to the miraculous kingdom of dreams-come-true, and so was a second remake in 1997. 

This "Enchanted Edition" of Cinderella is based on the 1997 teleplay.

If the carriage on the poster for the play looks familiar - it should. According to director Rick Johnson, Ken Scott of Ken Scott's Imagination Gallery in Sisters has donated the use of his magnificent and quite famous Cinderella carriage for the production.
