Tanglewood Marionettes “Cinderella” – Saturday, May 9th: 10am
A classic fairy tale told with wit and style, the story unfolds as the pages of a giant book open to reveal each beautifully painted setting, featuring lavishly costumed marionettes. All your favorite characters are here, from gentle Cinderella to the bumptious stepsisters and the charming prince, but we do offer a few new surprises: Cinderella’s method of conveyance to the ball is NOT the traditional horse-drawn coach, and, when all hope seems lost, a clever little bluebird saves the day for Cinderella.
Tickets: $10 per person (2 yrs and older)/$25 Family of 4 www.newtoncommunityprice.org/festival
