ELLA C: A passionate, young woman whose mother passed away many years ago. Her father was a genius quantum computer scientist who remarried Lady Zurka before he, too, passed. Female Presenting RUNKA: Constructed from video game computer parts, Runka is a robot made by Cinderella with her father. They are her sassy, human-like, hunk-a-junk companion and protector, and they have a real fondness for narrating Cinderella’s life over their livestreaming Instahologram feed. Runka is out of date and in need of a serious upgrade, but they still have a few tricks up their mechanical sleeve. Any/All Genders LADY ZURKA/ROYAL ENGINEER/HIP HOP MASK BALL CONTESTANTS WINGNUT/AL LOY/BAFFLER: Cinderella’s stepmother. She enjoys being mean and bossy to Cinderella and treats Runka the Robot Rapper especially cruelly. One has to wonder whether all this anger might actually
stem from a deeply repressed jealousy of the love her late husband had for his daughter, and his daughter for him. Perhaps there is a path to redemption after all. Female Presenting ZIG/ROYAL ENGINEER: Lady Zurka’s vain and somewhat vapid daughter, giving off distinct valley girl vibes. Her loftiest dream is to be an Instahologram “influencer”. Female Presenting ZAG/ROYAL ENGINEER: Lady Zurka’s stuck up and selfish daughter, who fancies reading books cover to cover (though not any of the pages in between), and who inexplicably started speaking with a British accent at the age of five when she overheard it on the Great Galactic Bakeoff Show her mom used to watch at night. Female Presenting PRINCE: Heir to the throne of the Galactic Empire, he is an ineffectual but charming prince who is good at little except cultivating Instahologram followers, throwing extravagant parties, and disappointing his mother. He lives in the Hip Hop Palace on the capital planet Zolla. Male Presenting AGGIE: The Empire’s galactic governing sentient supercomputer, existing purely in prop and voice-form. They are depressed because the citizens of the Empire are not acting “cool” enough. Voiced by an actual text-to-speech computer program. Any/All Genders www.nashvillechildrenstheatre.org
