Are you ready for the Ball? Do you have your glass slippers? You guessed it the famous Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella is coming to the Jefferson Performing Arts Center for two weekends only. The new Broadway adaptation of the classic musical, Cinderella, will take place April 8-10, 2022, and April 22 – 24, 2022, with performances Friday and Saturday at 7:30pm and Sunday at 2pm.
This contemporary take on the classic tale features Rodgers & Hammerstein’s most beloved songs, including “In My Own Little Corner,” “Impossible/It’s Possible,” and “Ten Minutes Ago,” alongside an updated, humorous, and romantic libretto by Douglas Carter Beane.

About JPAS:
The mission of the Jefferson Performing Arts Society is to nurture the performing arts and enrich the cultural and economic vitality of Jefferson Parish and the Gulf South through production and promotion of a diverse range of quality programs, arts training and education, and professional management of performing arts venues.
JPAS focuses on four main elements:
Performance: JPAS annually provides a wide range of theatrical performances that appeal to many interests and age groups. Most seasons include a selection of grand opera, musical theater, dance and music. JPAS strives to network and partner with national and international artists and companies to bring new and diverse programming to the Southern Region.
Training: JPAS provides performance and technical based training in the arts for all ages with a particular focus on young people.
Outreach: JPAS provides arts education programming in local area schools, as well as access to professional theatrical experiences that align to classroom curricula and Louisiana Content Standards, including Arts Adventure Series, Cultural Crossroads and Stage Without A Theatre. JPAS provides performers, musicians, artistic experiences and expertise to select area events and organizations to enrich the community.
Venue Management: JPAS provides professional management to performing arts venues both for presentation of its own productions and for use by others.
The Jefferson Performing Arts Society Believes:
In the positive power of the arts in the community as a tool for education, expression, cultural understanding and overall improvement of quality of life.
In the role of the arts as an economic stimulus in the community.
It is important to provide artistic outlets and opportunities for both amateur and professional artists.
The arts can draw attention and involve those within communities while nurturing cooperative ties across all borders.
