Get your dessert spoons ready for a tale of perseverance, princes, palace balls, glass slippers and, um, ice cream?
Over the last four decades, Cinderella’s has become the kingdom’s most beloved ice cream company, with a parlour on every street corner. But how did a humble ice cream maker with not a penny to her name end up as a multimillionaire business woman with her own ice cream empire?
In this new musical for families and children, join Talvi and Caldwell, loyal employees of Cinderella’s, as they share her rags to riches tale, and confront their own desires, hopes, and the magic that lies within each scoop of Cinderella’s legendary ice cream.
Perfect for children and families alike, this exciting musical retelling of a fairytale classic promises a delightful blend of storytelling, stunning live music, and theatrical magic that will capture your heart and tickle your taste buds.
Written and composed by David Gibb
Suitable for ages 5+
“This whimsical reimagining of Cinderella turns the classic tale into a song-filled journey of entrepreneurship, flavour, and fairy tale reinvention. Narrated by two quirky ice cream parlour employees, the show charms with brilliant songs, colourful staging, and a generous helping of comedy for both kids and adults.”

“Harthorpe and Gibb give top-notch performances, slipping silkily between multiple roles, belting out power numbers as deftly as they conjure up caricature villains. The script meanwhile has a Roald Dahl feel to it, garish and vivid in its characters, dastardly in its comic mischief.”
- The List ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

“The two brilliantly talented actors play a cast of many... They also provide the music for the catchy and original score. The script is funny and compelling and includes some great audience participation.”
