Posted by jeff in May, 2022

directed by: Jeff Graham
auditions: May 23-24, 2022
production dates: July 16 – 30, 2022

You’ve seen the movie a million times, but you’ve never seen Cinderella like this!  In this silly spin, we meet Cinderella, the fast-talking sales dynamo of the Castle Shopping Network (CSN).  As the winner of the Fairytale Land Advertising Award Necklace (FLAAN) for several years running, she is the apple of her stepmother’s eye.  After all, CSN is a family business, and Cinderella’s stepmother is the CEO…  and her biggest fan.  But now, those pesky stepsisters have invented a product so popular they just might take the top sales spot at this year’s FLAAN Ball!  Merry Mike, who wears tacky Christmas sweaters year-round, also dreams of winning the coveted award.  Cinderella has a prince and his Fairy Godfather on her side, but she needs to come up with something truly amazing to win back her top sales title before the midnight deadline.  As she attempts to save her career, she finds love and discovers that not only can she can have it all, she can make her own dreams come true!  You’ll love the balanced line count of this smart and snappy parody on home shopping networks.  Five optional commercial spots create up to 15 additional small roles.
