“Does CinderElla” really ©

change from old rags into a
beautiful ball gown?” is the
question everyone is asking.
Under the wonderful
direction of Molly Natress,
of course she does! And the
Fairy Godmother makes
her entrance by air, and the
pum kin turns into a coach

. “When you wish upon a
star, your dreams come
true,” is the song sung by
Linette Swanson,
the part of CinderElla, that
makes it all happen. Of
‘course Margaret Dodd, the

‘ Fairy Godmother, is partl

Fesponsible.. Even wit

Hortense and Ermyntrude |,

(the hilarious ugly sisters,

“tively) trying to foul: up:

CinderElla’s life, it all ends
rather happily with the
loving couple, CinderElla
and. Prince Charming
(Jennifer Langly), singing a
beautiful duet. But we must
not forget the orchestra,
under the direction of
Gordon Dickie. The en- —
chantment of their music is
essential to the magic of the
play. _
