Bab 443: Cinderella

Violet barely managed to make it to work on time after the elevator fiasco. Rushing like that made her tired and frazzled before she even started rehearsing for the day. Joy.

Their next show would be the classic ballet Cinderella and casting announcements were supposed to be made today. By this point, auditioning for specific parts was pointless. The director of the ballet knew everyone's individual capabilities. He assigned them what he knew they could do best.

"I really hope I get Cinderella this time," her fellow dancer Abigail Smith said with a sigh. "But everyone knows it will probably go to you, Violet. I'll be lucky to be one of the evil stepsisters."

"There's always the fairy godmother or one of the other fairies," Violet tried reassuring her.
