It originally aired in the United States on CBS on November 29, 1975, and is an adaptation of Charles Perrault's folk tale Cinderella that is set in the 1970s disco era.
The sketch was written by Gary Belkin and Roger Beatty and featured music composed by Arthur Malvin.
A Narrator introduces the audience into the magical land of the Sunset Strip where Cinderella's "groovy" stepmother and three "funky" stepsisters are singing together in their pad ("When You Got Soul").
She announces that she has been waiting for eighteen hours to get four tickets to Elfin John's disco rock concert that evening.
Her step-family then begins to get ready for the concert, making Cinderella do various tasks to help them, while pointing out that she is square and boring ("Dancing At The Disco Tonight").
After hearing someone echo her calls, her Fairy Godmother Marcus magically appears and announces that she is here to make "a miracle" happen for her.
She creates a Japanese motorcycle for her using two forty-fives and a pumpernickel loaf and also makes a new glamorous outfit for her to wear to the rock concert.
They are interrupted by a TV newsflash telling them that Elfin John is going around all the houses to find the superstar from the previous night.
Once again, her Fairy Godmother Marcus saves the day by giving Cinderella a "square" version of Elfin John.
