What Is The Story?

First conceived as a folktale in the Middle Ages, Cinderella is the story of a cruelly deposed daughter, working as a servant for her wicked stepmother following the death of her beloved father. When a grand Royal ball approaches, her wish to go is granted by a kindly Fairy Godmother who transforms her from maid to princess for one night only. When the Prince of the kingdom sees this enigmatic beauty, he is immediately transfixed, only to lose her when the clock strikes midnight. Love, magic, and hope intertwine as he pursues the mystery woman throughout the land.
