Synopsis

Don Nigro's Cinderella Waltz is a darkly comedic, twisted take on the classic fairy tale, blending elements of Cinderella, Snow White, and Hansel & Gretel, where the innocent Rosey Snow navigates a surreal, trailer-park-esque world with a lecherous father, demented stepmother, salty fairy godmother, and menacing figures, exploring themes of longing, greed, and finding one's own path beyond fairy tale clichés to a meaningful life. 

Key Elements:

• Twisted Fairy Tale: It reinterprets classic stories with absurd, sometimes frightening, humor, moving far beyond "love conquers all".

• Characters: Features familiar archetypes (Cinderella, Prince, Fairy Godmother) but reimagined as quirky, flawed, or menacing, like a troll and a village idiot.

• Themes: Explores the absurdity of life, deep-seated desires, and the need to take responsibility for personal beliefs, rather than just waiting for rescue.

• Setting: Puts a humorous spin on the fairy tale by placing it in a mundane, trailer-park-like setting. 

In essence, it's a fairy tale told through a modern, cynical, yet poignant lens, focusing on inner truth and self-discovery over simplistic happy endings..
