Cinderella is back—and this time, the galaxy needs her! Five years after her first adventure among the stars, Cinderella is now the Chief Engineer and Inventor for the Alliance of Planets. But when a devastating food shortage threatens the galaxy and Prince Astral’s mission goes wrong, Cinderella and her friends must work together to restore harmony across the universe.
With the help of the hilarious two-headed Fairy God-Bot, young audiences become part of the mission as they journey across distant planets, solve problems, and help rescue Prince Astral from a dangerous encounter with a black hole. Featuring lively songs by Laurie Berkner, playful puppetry, dynamic choreography, and mixed-media magic, NYCCT invites children and their families into an unforgettable cosmic adventure.
This new musical ignites children’s imaginations through accessible and engaging introductions to concepts of science, physics, our solar system, and environmental stewardship, while reinforcing NYCCT’s mission to support social and emotional growth. Themes of curiosity, friendship, community building, and problem‑solving reminds us that caring for others and working together can change the universe.
