Cinderella was produced in seven months expressly for the new star Julie Andrews, then playing in My Fair Lady; it was shown only once in color and recorded only with a B&W kinescope camera.
Cinderella (Julie Andrews) cheerfully puts up with the abuse of her stepmother (Ilka Chase) and her catty, obnoxious stepsisters Portia (Kaye Ballard) and Joy (Alice Ghostley) but wishes aloud that she could attend the ball too.
Andrews' Cinderella accepts her home situation with good cheer instead of despair, an attitude that seems more likely to attract the blessings of a Fairy Godmother.

Browbeaten by her stepfamily, Cinderella seeks consolation in a menagerie of mice, birds and other creatures depicted by puppets, an effect not unlike that of The Lion King, though fl-clad actors operate the puppet rods.
