Amira: A Chicago Cinderella Story

Amira: A Chicago Cinderella Story modernizes the traditional Cinderella fairy tale while still keeping its magical elements.

Set in Hyde Park, the story centers around Amira, a teenage immigrant who has recently arrived in Chicago, as she explores her new city, meets new friends, and attends the Chicago Masked Ball.

Featuring a cast of dancers ages 7 to adult, this 75-minute, family-friendly production is presented at Mandel Hall on The University of Chicago campus March 28 and 29, 2020.

The production is choreographed by School founding artistic director August Tye and Hyde Park School of Dance's associate directors. Ms. Tye is also ballet mistress for the Lyric Opera of Chicago.

Public performances are scheduled for:

Saturday March 28 at 1pm and 6pm
Sunday March 29 at 12pm and 4pm
