What if we decided that Cinderella represents the proletariat, her sisters are the bourgeois, her step mother is the aristocracy as the previous ruling class.  Cinderella’s father’s marriage to the stepmother represents the end of primitive communism, and the death of Cinderella’s father is the death of the protections won by peasants under the previous system, allowing for the degradation of cinderella (the proletariat) by the bourgeoisie and aristocracy.

The fairy godmother is class solidarity, and she transforms the pumpkin (the agricultural workers) the mice (the urban proletariat) the rat (the progressive petite bourgeois) and the lizards (the lumpen proletariat) into a unified group to get the united working class (cinderella) to get to the ball (class consciousness)

The need to leave by midnight represents bourgeois attempts to suppress class consciousness

The prince represents the means of production.

When Cinderella (the proletariat) goes to the ball (achieves class consciousness) she realizes she must marry the prince (seize the means of production) but she falls prey to the midnight rule (bourgeois propaganda to suppress class consciousness)  and loses her shoe (symbolizing the division of the working class created by bourgeois propaganda)

The prince’s attempts to try the shoe on other women are attempts by reformists to “fix” capitalism, and the stepsisters’ attempts to fit into the shoe (often quite gory) represent Fascism’s innately pro-capitalist attempts to turn leftist thought to the ends of capital.

Cinderella’s asking to try on the slipper when the prince shows up with it, represents the fact that stable class consciousness is formed when material conditions get to the point where bourgeois interference can no longer interrupt the process.

Cinderella’s fitting into the shoe represents the return of working class solidarity, and her marriage to the prince represents the resulting revolutionary action of the proletariat seizing the means of production and happily ever after represents full communism.

IDK it’s fun
