Summary

Follows the famous story in a straightforward version: though the traditional pantomine additions are introduced, the narrative line remains the salient feature: the arrival of the stepmother and her two horrific daughters; Cinderella's maltreatment in the kitchen; the faithful Buttons; etc.
