Production Photo

The sets, by Caleb Wertenbaker, are among the most sophisticated I've seen on this stage. Cinderella's home is empty and airy — an arch, two broken archway pieces, a little furniture. The palace ballroom is a miracle of depth and perspective, created by ranks of receding arches.
-Juliet Wittman, Denver Westwood

It is simply delicious, irrestible stuff, from first moment to last....Caleb Wertenbaker, whose spare look for Cinderella's home contrastst neatly with the shiny, telescoping walls of the Prince's palace...The production's most evocative scenes feature the Fairy Godmother descending on a crescent moon...
-Marc Shulgold, Rocky Mountain News
