A drama critic summed up a key advantage to these participation plays saying, "Kids can't talk back to a television screen. In glorious contrast is [this] 'Cinderella' in which members of the audience help the show along!" As the action begins in this participation version of the old favorite, small groups of children come on to the stage to help Cinderella clean the stepmother's house before the terrible family returns. The children then help an absentminded Fairy Godmother get Cinderella dressed and ready for the ball; create the wild ride to the castle; and provide a distraught King Ferdinand and a sorrowful prince with a queen and ladies and gentlemen to dance with at the ball.
This interactive children's play was a hit. The children felt honored to come on stage with the actors and the actors received great lessons on improv -- you never know what children will do! We received so many nice compliments from parents and grandparents.
Cinderella, Cinderella is a thoroughly charming play that incorporates tons of audience participation into the familiar story of the girl who is visited by her fairy godmother. Our high school actors had a terrific experience with this production.
The whole audience wants to be a part of the fun!
Just a fabulous piece for a preschool audience Ñ they loved to talk to the actors and go on stage.
Always have "magic helpers" in the audience to facilitate moving the children on and off stage.
