Sadly, even to this day, Cinderella is still fighting with Sony to get their songs back and release their new album. Because of the legal battle, the band hs not been able to release any new material on any label. Fortunately, for the fans, Cinderella continues to tour every summer with other 80s bands. In 2005, the band headlined the Rock Never Stops tour with bands like Firehouse and Quiet Riot.

In Britain Cinderella was most frequently performed as a pantomime, usually seen at Christmas. Many of these pantomimes, particularly at leading London theatres, included significant ballets. There was an important ballet production at the Empire Theatre, in 1906, with Adeline Genée in the title role. Most of the choreography was by Fred Farren, who ... played the role of the stepmother. The production was in five scenes and ran less than an hour, ending with the ball. It was memorable for its designs in the style of the painter Watteau, as well as for Genée's dancing.

Cinderella had a wonderful time at the ball, but, all of a sudden, she heard the sound of a clock: the first stroke of midnight! She remembered what the fairy had said, and without a word of goobye she slipped from the Prince's arms and ran down the steps. As she ran she lost one of her slippers, but not for a moment did she dream of stopping to pick it up! oh, what a disaster that would be! Out she fled and vanished into the night.

There were many notable ballet productions of Cinderella in Russia before Prokofiev wrote his score. In 1871 Vaclav Reisinger, (mostly known today as the first choreographer of Swan Lake), created Cinderella or The Crystal Slipper in Moscow to music by Gerber. Two decades later, in 1893, Marius Petipa, Enrico Cecchetti and Lev Ivanov pooled their talents for a Cinderella in St. Petersburg. The production was noted for its demonstration of dancers' technical virtuosity, although the score by Baron Fittingov-Schell was not up to the standards audiences were beginning to expect and the costumes were heavy and awkward. In Cinderella, the ballerina Pierina Legnani introduced to Russia the 32 fouettés she had previously shown in Aladdin in London, and which would become famous in the Petipa-Ivanov Swan Lake. Legnani was only one of several Italian ballerinas at the end of the century performing these multiple turns but the one with whom they will always be associated.

If one aim of the story is to illustrate the ascent from low to high status, then Cinderella must meet a man in that social milieu who will free her from her miserable circumstances. Furthermore, marriage represents an effort to gain independence from the previous generation and to create a new family. In most of the versions, she will meet the man she is to marry at a social occasion, a festival, a ball, or a party. The Grimms' storyteller reported a version in which she went to the ball on three successive nights, obeying Olrik's ‘law of repetition of three’. The stepmother forbids her attendance at the event and imposes impossible tasks so that the unfortunate young woman may not attend the event. She must separate lentils from ashes, beans from gravel, carry water in buckets with sieved bottoms.
