2006 Spring Play—Twinderella's Fantasy Story in American Sign Language

Students learned how to direct a play using character development along with the art of stage make-up and other skills that are needed to produce a successful play. Students also learned the process of teamwork. Personal growth comes from learning how to coordinate all the various elements together.

Cinderella never had it this bad. In Twinderella's Fantasy Story—a twisted and hilarious update of the classic fairy tale—a deaf girl, named Twinderella, lives at the beck and call of her self-obsessed step-mother and her sinfully wicked step-sisters who treat her more like a servant than a member of the family. With her sight set an leaving home, Twinderella finds her less-than-sparkling life wonderfully complicated when she meets her prince charming.

The MSSD production was directed by Maria Solovey and Assistant, Suzette Evringham.
