Cinderella has finally been invited to the biggest event of the year for Once Upon a Time’s most talented bakers and treat makers—The Dough Ball! Feeling hopeless over what to wear, her Fairy Godmother, Fey, conjures up fantastical outfits for her to try on. The choices are fashion-tasticly fabulous—from mermaid inspired gowns to cyber-chic ensembles to sprinkle-frosting frocks—but nothing feels quite right. Her friends and Fey help her choose an outfit that will make her feel her best at the Ball and stay true to who she is, no matter the occasion.
 

Meet the cast who brought this story to life: Adrienne Kaori Walters (Cinderella) is the Director of Hillbarn Theatre's Conservatory. Kristin Schmitz (Fey the Fairy Godmother), who also co-wrote this story, is a performer, musician and ASL Interpreter and a member of our Dork Squad creative team. And you all know Jonathan Cormur (or at least his many voices 😀). He was recently awarded a grant for his work as a neurodivergent creator from the Stimpunks Foundation.
