Who hasn't heard of „Cinderella"? Who doesn't know the story of the poor, kind-hearted girl named Cinderella, who is cruelly treated by her stepmother and stepsisters? Despite the unfair treatment, the maiden in the story remains gentle and wise. Through a good fairy and a magical ball, Cinderella gets a chance to fulfill her dream of attending the royal ball, where she meets the prince and falls in love with him. However, at midnight, she flees and loses her glass slipper, which becomes the clue with which the prince finds her. After much searching, he identifies Cinderella and offers her the slipper to try on, the story ending happily with their marriage.
„Cinderella – The Voice of the Kingdom" is a show about finding one's voice/calling/vocation and about following it, regardless of the obstacles that may arise. It is a show about music, about working, about being talented, but also about seizing the opportunity to fulfill your dream. Ella, a shy and withdrawn girl from our days, is a sensitive soul, who can only express herself through song, can give voice to her true personality, and when she is on stage, she shines. The protagonist wants to participate in the casting for the premiere of „Cinderella" at the high school. The roles of the stepsisters Grizella and Anastasia are played by two actors to achieve a comic, satirical, and caricatural effect of the malicious, unladylike, and musically untalented sisters. Their interpretation contrasts with Ella's sensitivity and tenderness.
Her dream is to make her voice heard, to be a complete artist: to sing, to dance, to be like the heroines of the childhood stories her mother used to read to her when she was little. Ella is not just a simple character who dreams of being a princess, but she wants to develop and express her artistic talent in its fullness, including singing and dancing. The place where Ella feels best is a virgin, atypical, intriguing one: the attic of the house. There, alongside her childhood toys (Șoricella, Guz Guz, and Coco Brânză, her friends, and the birds in the attic), she often rereads her childhood stories, and this time she will put on a show. As often as she needs to be alone with her dream, she goes to this place which is a portal to the past, to the beginning of beginnings, the place where Ella often puts on shows and where she tells her mother about every progress, every desire, and what else she has achieved for her dream. Singing is for her a solace, a motivating force, a way to overcome life's obstacles with optimism, a promise made to her mother to make her talent known. For Ella, the story of Cinderella is not just about finding love or a prince. It's about finding her voice, about following her passion, and about believing that anything is possible when you have the courage to believe in your dreams.
