Mar. 29th - 31st

The fabled children's ballet Cinderella will be presented by the Carnegie Performing Arts Center March 29, 30 and 31 at the Andrew Carnegie Music Hall, 300 Beechwood Avenue in Carnegie. Friday and Saturday performances will be at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m. Tickets are $18 for adults and $15 for children, students and seniors. The ballet follows the story of young Cinderella, whose father died and left her in the care of her stepmother. The stepmother, with her two daughters, Agatha and Adele, make Cinderella work as a servant in her own home. They call her Cinderella because she spends so much time sweeping out the cinders in the fireplace. Cinderella dreams of attending a ball for Prince Cornelius who is seeking a wife. With the help of her fairy godmother, Cinderella does indeed go to the ball and wins the love of the Prince. But then, at midnight, just as the fairy godmother predicted, Cinderella's beautiful ball gown turns to rags, her coach turns back into a pumpkin and her footmen become mice. All that is left is a tiny glass slipper that Prince Cornelius finds and determines to find its owner.

The role of young Cinderella is played by Natalie Twigg of Munhall, while the grown up Cinderella is danced by Elizabeth Scalise, a Junior at Chartiers Valley and a resident of Bridgeville. The young selves of stepsisters Agatha and Adele are played by Alexis Albert of Scott Township and Shelby Self of Collier Township. Older versions of Agatha and Adele are portrayed by Miranda Richardson of Mount Lebanon who is a graduating senior at the Carnegie Performing Arts Center and Alexis Retkofsky who is a recent graduate of Point Park University in Costume Design. Mary Pusateri, from Bethel Park, dances the role of the Stepmother and is an instructor and alumni of the Carnegie Performing Arts Center. Madeleine Ryan who attends South Fayette High School dances the role of Cinderella's fairy godmother. Prince Cornelius is portrayed by Jeremy Eiben, who is in his final year of Costume Design at Point Park University. He won the first place Craftsman award from Tekko which takes place at the David Lawrence Convention Center. Jeremy is a resident of Washington. For information about the performance of Cinderella please call the Carnegie Performing Arts Center at 412-279-8887 or access the website at www.carnegieperformingartscenter.com or look up the Carnegie Performing Arts Center on FaceBook.

"We average 75 participating vendors each year," Kelton continued. "We expect around that many to participate again this year and hopefully more - especially because we are permitting vendors to sell related products at the event which was a success last year."

It features both indoor and outdoor activities and will take place rain or shine. Some of the scheduled activities include music and dance performances, opportunities to climb aboard various emergency vehicles, playtime with therapy dogs, face-painting, and more.

In addition to the activities, attendees are able to speak with professionals representing a wide-range of services and obtain informational materials. Many of the vendors also have giveaways and activities at their individual tables.

Vendors that participated in previous years include Allegheny Behavior Analysis Services, Autism Society of Pittsburgh, The Children's Home of Pittsburgh & Lemieux Family Center, Empowered Medical Advocacy, iDiscovery Toys, Intervention Fundamentals, Kepro / Southwestern PA Health Care Quality Unit, PA Tourette Syndrome Alliance, Parent to Parent, Pennsylvania Mentor, Usborne Books, and WHS Children's Therapy Center.

The event facility, The Pathfinder School, offers free onsite parking during the event and is located along the Pittsburgh Light Rail system at the Dorchester stop. Light refreshments will be available for a nominal fee.

Sponsors for the event include Evey True Value Hardware, the Allegheny Intermediate Unit, and the South Central Area Special Schools Committee.
