About the Show

Cinderella is the classic story of a young woman whose good heart transports her from rags to royalty. This production is a Tanglewood Marionettes masterpiece, featuring a witty script and over a dozen lavishly costumed marionettes. All of your favorite characters are here, from gentle Cinderella and the charming Prince, to the bumptious stepsisters and the magical Fairy Godmother. This telling is based on the original beloved tale, with a few unexpected twists!

All ages welcome, especially enjoyed by ages 4 – 8

About the Artist

Anne and Peter performing “Hansel and Gretel” at Puppet Showplace Theater in 2023.

Founded in 1993 by Peter and Anne Schaefer, Tanglewood Marionettes is a nationally touring marionette company whose unique productions have been seen by hundreds of thousands of children and families across the country. With seven shows currently in their repertoire, the company performs year-round at venues ranging from school assemblies to renowned cultural institutions. The company has received two UNIMA awards, puppetry's highest honor, for their productions An Arabian Adventure and The Dragon King.

Tanglewood Marionettes believes above all that a performance is a communal experience, with connections established not only with the performers, but also between members of the audience themselves as they laugh together, gasp together, and cheer together when the good guys prevail!
