Charming Princes

Cinderella lived the dream: she donned a gown of starlight, waltzed with the prince, and stole a (somewhat wet and slimy) kiss. So what if Charming couldn't take a hint, even when it smacked him with a six-inch stiletto? He was a prince, and that's what Cinderella had wished for...right?

CHARMING PRINCES is perfect for touring, and for elementary schools!

Charming Princes a nonstop comedy for all ages with rich characters and revolves around a fairy tale that everyone knows and loves. 

The show has lots of audience participation and a positive message that it is what's on the inside that counts.

With small cast, minimal set and fun costumes, this show fits perfectly into our season!

CINDERELLA.
Oh, he was everything I’d hoped for – handsome, debonair – but that’s all he was: handsome.  Charming.  And that was all I would ever be to him: beautiful, with moonlight in my hair...

So I threw my shoe at his head and ran away.
