SCENE 1 | Rosita informs the viewer that today, a new shoe store is opening on Sesame Street, owned by none-other than Cinderella. She shows off her favorite sneakers, which she's wearing with her dress for the special occasion. A duke rushes in, asking Rosita if she's seen a young, beautiful woman around. Eventually, he discovers a glass slipper in the yard, then finds Cinderella (Lucy Liu) hiding nearby. She's ready for another round of hide-and-seek, but the Duke tells her she must be ready to open the shoe store. Cinderella admits she no longer wishes to be a princess; she never gets to have any real fun, plus her fancy shoes hurt her feet. She distracts him and dashes off. |
