Cinderella -- A Tanglewood Marionettes Production

Cohen Auditorium at Tufts University, 40 Talbot Ave, Medford, MA | Get Directions »
$6.00

Shows at 1pm and 3pm! Great for girls AND boys. 

Tickets will be available for purchase before the show for $6.00, until noon time on Friday, February 8th, after that time tickets will be available at the door for $8.00, cash only.

Set in the eighteenth century and featuring a dozen lavishly costumed 30" marionettes, this production of Cinderella is a Tanglewood Marionettes showpiece. The story unfolds as the pages of a giant book open to reveal each beautifully painted setting--the village square, the rustic kitchen, the magnificent ballroom, plus many more (one of our scenes even "pops" right out of the book!). All your favorite characters are here, from gentle Cinderella to the bumptious Step-Sisters and the charming Prince, and each marionette is manipulated with precision and grace by our talented puppeteers.

Our telling is based on the original beloved tale, but we do offer a few new surprises: Cinderella's method of conveyance to the ball is NOT your traditional coach-and-four, and, when all hope seems lost, a clever little bluebird saves the day for Cinderella. A classic fairy tale told with wit and style, Tanglewood Marionettes’ production of Cinderella is sure to please audiences of all ages.
