Cinderella (Broadway)

See it if I saw this back in April 2014 (before Show-score began). I loved the Julie Andrews original version and it was fun to see it fully staged.

Don't see it if you want something edgy, don't like musicals.

Also Sometimes you just need some lovely music...Was thinking about it as Santino Fontana has gotten more famous (just saw him at the 92nd St Y) and streamed the music from this version of the musical with him as the prince.

See it if Disney "magic" is enough for you. Staging IS magical, along w/costume-changing tricks. But K Palmer's not strong enough to carry a big show.

Don't see it if You are interested in seeing the movie on stage. It's nothing like the movie.

Also Being so used to the Disney version this show was unexpected. However, I got really into the story, especially the love story aspect. The beginning with the giant praying mantis was confusing, but otherwise I felt that the story was more mature than the Disney movie. There were no talking animals in the show, and we got nice backstories on each character like the prince, and the fairy godmother.... Read more Read less
