The Upward Bound Program at Southern Arkansas University will present two performances of the musical drama, “Cinderella’s Glass Slipper” at 10 a.m. July 1 and at 6 p.m. July 2. Both performances will be held at Harton Theatre on the University campus and are free and open to the public.<\/p>\n

“Cinderella’s Glass Slipper,” a two-act play written by Vera Morris, with music and lyrics by Bill Francoeur is based on the rags-to-riches fantasy of a beautiful young girl named Cinderella. After her father’s death, Cinderella is living with her mean stepmother and her two cruel and jealous stepsisters who despise her because she is everything that they are not.<\/p>\n

Despite her sweet nature, Cinderella is clothed in rags, made to sleep on the floor, work from sun up to sun down, and eat scraps from the family’s table. Cinderella dreams of someday breaking free of her hardships. As fate would have it, the Queen wanted her only son to get married. All eligible females, young and old, were summoned to the palace for a grand ball. Much to everyone’s surprise, the Fairy Godmother intervenes with her magic wand and sets the stage for Cinderella to experience her dream.<\/p>\n

This production will provide good, clean family entertainment filled with music, singing, and dancing. Although the play is free, donations will be accepted and will go toward the completion of a third scholarship endowment. Each endowment provides one year of paid tuition for a graduating senior or former Upward Bound participant to attend Southern Arkansas University.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
