Barrington's White House to present musical 'Cinderella'

Join Barrington's White House and the Family Fun Players for a virtual musical theater performance of "Cinderella" at 1 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 25.

Adapted by Eileen Mitchell and directed by Julie Price, enjoy all your favorite characters, plus a few new friends.

Mitchell has won humor writing awards from Thurber House, The Will Rogers Writers' Workshop and The Robert Benchley Society. She was also featured Writer of the Month via the Erma Bombeck Writers' Workshop, and had plays produced in San Diego, Chicago and off-Broadway at The Manhattan Repertory Theatre.

"We believe that we have to find a way to keep theater in our lives, especially for the children. We will do our best to put together shows that are safe for our actors and then record them for our audience," says director Julie Price.

"The actors will maintain a social distance since they won't be wearing masks. It's important for our audience to be able to see our animated expressions, and to hear us clearly for them to escape with us into Cinderella's world."

This fall, Barrington's White House has something for everyone looking for an afternoon or evening enjoying the arts. More information and tickets for all events can be found at www.barringtonswhitehouse.com/events.
