MUFARO'S BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS
Based on the book by
John Steptoe
Adapted for the stage by
Karen Abbott
A Caldecott Award winning Cinderella tale!
When a great African king desires a wife, only the most worthy and beautiful maidens in the land are invited to meet him. Mufaro’s pride and joy, his two daughters of very different dispositions, travel across a river and half a day’s journey to go before the king. With traditional chanting and African song, come celebrate goodness, generosity and love.
