Short synopsis
- Synopsis
- Characters
It starts with the Fairy Godmother and her husband discussing Cinderella. The Fairy Godmother is very put out because after all her hard work, Cinderella does not want to marry the prince; she thinks he is too boring.
Cinderella’s plan is to run away to join a pirate ship (disguised as a boy, of course) with her faithful friend Press Stud. All the old characters, such as Baron Hardup, the stepmother, the ugly sisters, the Prince and Dan O’Deeny, (his Irish companion), follow her to bring her back, and the Fairy Godmother goes along to see fair play.
On board ship, Cinderella meets some interesting new characters, such as the swashbuckling pirate chief, the Earl of Sandwich and his wife, their well-endowed daughter Eglantine, and even some nasty characters such as the Old Man of the Sea.
She is warned that the prince will recognise her, so she remains in disguise, but the prince becomes attached to Eglantine, who is too wrapped up in herself to find him boring. Cinderella is attracted to the handsome pirate chief, who guesses who she is and reveals her true identity.
The ship sails to Mexico where pretty girls, rival bandit gangs and lots more adventures await all our characters. There is hidden treasure, but the pirate chief and an old girlfriend steal it. The bandits therefore decide to capture and marry an heiress but when everyone is wearing mantillas, who can tell who is who? The ugly sisters are in for a big surprise, and yes, Cinderella does find true happiness, but not quite in the way we expect.

Frequently asked questions
Can we try before we buy?
Of course! All our plays and pantomimes have a free Preview Script available for download as an A4 pdf file that contains 60-75% of the full script. If you like what you read then you can buy an inexpensive e-script of the entire play (typically less than half the cost of a traditional printed script) which is licensed to you for your personal use. Purchasing a script copying licence allows you to make just enough copies to support rehearsals and performances.
All our musicals are included in our perusal service. Through this, representatives of producing organisations can request a USB Stick of perusal material which comprise the script/libretto and piano/vocal score as PDF files; a Cast (or Studio) Recording as MP3 files and (where available) an MP4 file video of either the premiere production or of a subsequent production.
Some titles have the facility to read the entire script online on our website.
Do we need a Licence To Perform?
The simple answer is, yes.
Under the international laws of copyright, you must be in possession of a valid, unexpired licence before performing any piece of theatre unless the owner or managers of the copyright has waived their rights.
Why do you insist on providing a formal royalties quotation?
When you request a quotation, it is logged in our system, it forms part of an orderly queue and protects your place in that queue should multiple licensing requests occur for the same show.
