    Does anyone know a really cool alternate story for Cinderella?
    I want a new type of rendition of Cinderella because I think the old story is sooooo lame! Lets get something new up in this joint :)

    Why not update it, and do a role reversal, so the Cinderella character is a guy?

    And give him some qualities besides good looks to attract the celeb.

    How about Cinderella forgives her stepmother and stepsisters. They love each other and they all get along.:cool:

    Have you ever heard the German version of cinderella? Toward the end of the story, Cinderella's stepsisters cut their feet to fit into the glass slipper! Maybe you can alter some part of the story to give it a twist. For example, maybe one of the step sisters can go to the ball instead of Cinderella.

    I've always thought that glass slippers must be horrendously uncomfortable. How about: the prince is a prat, and when he goes hunting the owner of the glass slipper, one of the step sisters forces it onto her foot, then is stuck with wearing it all the time,and stuck with the prattish prince, while Cinders and the Fairy Godmother go into business doing makeovers for big events?
