Finally, the prince does find Cinderella, but she is none too keen to marry a man who can only recognize her by her shoe size. Instead, she uses her wits to escape from her cruel stepmother and evil stepsisters.  For more about this production, visit www.casdk12.net. 67 Cinderellas is published by Dramatic Publishing.
