Town Hall Theatre celebrates the holidays with a delightfully original take on the classic Brothers Grimm story, CINDERELLA: A Fairytale.

Featuring original music, filled with humor, dance and a genuine love story, CINDERELLA: A Fairytale will appeal to audiences young and old. As we meet little Ella, her father is teaching his daughter the names and calls of all the forest birds. They enjoy a happy life together … until he remarries and her life is upended. Surrounded by cruel relations, Ella’s only allies are a flock of very clever and magical birds. This imaginative new version of the classic folktale includes many fanciful twists: the actor playing the Father transforms into the scheming Stepmother (in a nod to British panto tradition), the Prince is a geeky, asthmatic bird-watcher, and the slipper is a Doc Marten-type boot that shimmers! 


CINDERELLA: A Fairytale, part of our 75th  “TRANSFORMATIONS” Season, will have 12 performances, including two previews, December 5 through December 21, 2019, at Town Hall Theatre Company, 3535 School Street, in Lafayette, CA.  Tickets are $18 – $30, and are available through the Box Office at (925) 283-1557 or online at www.TownHallTheatre.com.


 “ … beautifully formed, this is not just a great Christmas show, but a great night for all times and all ages.” –  The Guardian

“It’s not often that I want to see a show a third time, but then it’s not often that a show is as properly enchanting as Cinderella: A Fairytale.” – The Times


THT will host three Special Events for CINDERELLA: A FAIRYTALE: an Opening Night gala on Saturday, December 7, 2019; LIT UP at Town Hall, a literary salon on the theme “Outcast/Cast Out” on Monday, December 9, 2019; and Theatre Club, our post-show talk-back with complimentary wine, on Friday, December 13, 2019. We welcome audiences to enjoy THT’s full bar and entertainment in our lobby one hour before performances.   Town Hall is thrilled to welcome the John Muir Land Trust as a new community partner with this production. JMLT manages a stunning landscape of 16 properties, including Carr Ranch, a pristine 604-acres adjacent to Lamorinda exemplifying the cultural legacy of California cattle ranches.
