ROYAL TREATMENT
at CiNDERELLa!
PRINCESS PARTIES Pre-show princess parties are a magical experience for proud princesses,
future queens, or secretaries of state! Little girls receive their very own tiara, enjoy the finest
tea and cookies in the entire kingdom, and get their photo taken with Cinderella!
ROYAL PROPOSALS Begin your “happily ever after” on stage after CINDERELLA! For no cost,
pop the question to your Princess or Prince Charming in front of a kingdom full of audience
members! Make it even more memorable with an optional post-show celebration for friends
and family, where cast members might stop by to say congratulations to the happy couple.
