This year, Theater Latte Da is forgoing their usual holiday fare (the long-running and always moving
All is Calm, now streaming on
PBS.org, and the more recent balm to the soul
Christmas at the Local) for a show that is a series of firsts. The regional premiere of the 2013 update of Rodgers and Hammerstein's
Cinderella, which was the first (and only) musical they wrote exclusively for television, Theater Latte Da's first ever production of a Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, and new Artistic Director Justin Lucero's directing debut with the company. The result is a fun, magical, and heart-warming show that feels both classic and modern, with a fantastic local cast and simply gorgeous design.
See it at the Ritz Theater in Northeast Minneapolis now through January 5.
