SCENE V Kitchen, same as Scene I Cinderella on the hearth sadly gazing at the fire. Sud- denly her fairy godmother appears. She asks Cinderella what is the matter and why she is in rags. The girl tells her how she is made to drudge. The godmother treads a measure of the minuet and, by gestures, asks the girl if she would like to go to the ball. Cinderella answers "Yes" enthusiastically. Fairy waves a wand and Cinderella is beautifully dressed. She dances about in delight. Fairy motions to door for Cinderella to pass out. Then stops and points to figure twelve on large clock and indicates that Cinderella must return by midnight. SCENE VI Ballroom, same as Scene IV The friends of the prince urge him to dance. They bring up beautiful women to present to him. He turns them over to other partners and walks wearily away. Nothing interests him.

Fairy waves a wand over a large pumpkin and it is transformed into a dainty carriage; she waves wand over the rats and mice, and they become coachman, grooms, and ponies. Cinder- ella gets into carriage and is driven off. 10
