Just in time for the holidays, Magik Theatre brings to you the much beloved story of Cinderella – turned upside down! Ella Enchanted: The Musical emphasizes the importance of self-empowerment, perseverance in the face of insurmountable obstacles and an eagerness to learn. In this heart-warming and powerful tale, children of all ages are encouraged to discover the power of words within their own voice.
About Ella Enchanted by Magik Theatre
Ella Enchanted is a special two-act production, adapted by Karen Zacarías as a play from a children’s book by New York Times bestselling author Gail Carson Levine, and will feature music by Deborah Wicks La Puma.
In this fairytale, at birth, Ella of Frell is given the “gift” of obedience by her misguided fairy godmother. But as a teenager, strong-willed Ella chooses to reject her fate and embarks on a quest to break the curse forever. Through her adventures, Ella must outwit evil stepsisters, escape hungry ogres and save the prince before she can claim her real voice.
“It gives our theatre company a great sense of pride for families to experience the joy and wonder of their favorite children’s book come to life, and we know this next production will not disappoint,” says Magik Theatre Artistic Director Anthony Runfola. “Ella Enchanted is the perfect addition to this holiday season.”
The special production, which is recommended for ages 5 and above, runs approximately 75 minutes including an intermission, with a five-minute question-and- answer session.
