Based on the 1998 film starring Drew Barrymore and Anjelica Huston, Ever After, press notes state, "sets the record straight on the fable of Cinderella. Her name was Danielle and it was always about her wit, her smarts, her strength and her good friend Leonardo da Vinci. She makes her own dreams come true. Warm and romantic, funny and smart, this is the musical you’ve been waiting for."
