Cinderella and the glass slipper

Daddy was out of town for the weekend a few weeks back at a management training so we took advantage and went to see Cinderella and the glass slipper. There is a small children's theater here and they put on shows for kids. This one did not have any children in it but I guess some of their other productions do. Elsie sat very still and seemed to like it. I only thought last minute to tell her it was not the Disney version with the mice and birds and all the singing but I still think she liked it. The Fairy Godmother part was pretty cool so that helped. After it was over she said that the mice that they had were not real...I said how do you know and she did not respond. I guess she was thinking it over. For the record they were not real at all. They were in a cage to start with then the Fairy Godmother took them out and placed them by each side stage door so the coachmen she turned them into could jump out of the curtains as soon as she said the magic words! It was cute. But the mice did not run away when she was backing up and saying the spell so they were obviously cat toys. It was a fun night and afterwards we went to Costco for pizza one of Elsie's favorites!
