The Bread, the Bracelet and the Dove was first performed by Lakeshore Players Summer Youth Project under the original title Ciao Cinderella.

Based on an Italian folktale, the play centers around what Italians love best: food and family. Amid an array of colorful, quirky, emotional characters, two children save a magical dove and learn up close and personal about the meaning of famiglia. Set in a lively marketplace in Renaissance Italy, the play is fast-paced, lively, with moments of great silliness and sweetness.
