鈥淓lla Enchanted鈥� is a family-oriented musical based on the Newbery Award-winning young adult novel by Gail Carson Levine and was adapted for the stage by Karen Zacarias. Filled with whimsical musical numbers, colorful characters, and a heap of humor, this retelling of the classic fairytale 鈥淐inderella鈥� also sets out to turn stereotypical female roles on its head by giving young girls a new kind of fairytale character to look up to: Ella, a strong, smart, and ambitious young girl who tackles her own problems and sets her own boundaries.

Audience members will be entranced by the bewitching story of Ella, who was inadvertently cursed at birth by a young fairy named Lucinda and forced into a life of compelled obedience forever. Told this is a 鈥済ift,鈥� Ella spends all her life involuntarily serving the people around her. After her mother dies, Ella breaks free and sets out on a quest for her freedom from this 鈥済ift,鈥� certain that this curse was not the life she was meant to lead. She travels through a magical world of elves, gnomes, and giants in search of her fairy godmother, Lucinda, to reverse the curse placed on her all those years ago. She faces many challenges along the way while making new friends and finding her voice and independence.
