When Prince Brad announces he’s holding a Mirror Ball, Cinderella goes on a journey to discovery to find her perfect thing to take to the ball!
Encouraged by her best friend Buttons, Cinderella tries making things, playing sport with the winning obsessed sisters Darcy, Delilah and Daisy Dribble and even cooks some pumpkin soup with the city chefs.
When all of her attempts are sabotaged by Darcy, Daisy and Delilah Dribble, Cinderella decides not to go to the ball and ends up at the corner shop where two local shopkeepers have a magical surprise in store for her! They’re her fairy godparents!
The fairy godparents turned a pumpkin into a carriage and transform Cinderella’s clothes into a beautiful party dress and presents her with a golden microphone so she can sing at the Prince’s Mirror Ball!
Cinderella believes that the magic has given her an amazing singing voice and gives a perfect performance but runs away when the clock strikes midnight and the magic runs out.
On Cinderella’s way out from the ball, Buttons chased after her and tells Cinderella that singing has always been her thing and she doesn’t need magic to help her sing she just needs to believe in herself. Whilst turning back to the ball, Cinderella is thwarted by Darcy, Delilah and Daisy Dribble who catches her in a football net and locked her away in a tower.
The next day Prince Brad searches for the missing and mysterious singer, Cinderella uses her singing voice to help everyone find her! At last Darcy, Delilah and Daisy Dribble are halted in their trophy snatching attempts and Prince Brad can award Cinderella the Mirror Ball Trophy as the rightful winner.
