Rodgers + Hammerstein’s Cinderella is the new Broadway adaptation of the classic musical. This contemporary take on the classic tale features Rodgers & Hammerstein’s most beloved songs, including “In My Own Little Corner,” “Impossible/It’s Possible” and “Ten Minutes Ago,” alongside an up-to-date, hilarious and romantic libretto by Tony Award nominee Douglas Carter Beane.
Originally presented on television in 1957 starring Julie Andrews, Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella was twice remade for television, first in 1965 for Lesley Ann Warren and again in 1997, featuring Brandy and Whitney Houston. The original Broadway production of Rodgers + Hammerstein’s Cinderella opened in 2013 and starred Laura Osnes, Santino Fontana, Victoria Clark and Harriet Harris.
The PHS production features Jordan VandeVenter as Cinderella, Phillip Goodale as Prince Topher, Addison Compton as Madame, Bianka Nickelsen and Onne Adams as Gabrielle and Charlotte, and Angela Frost as the Fairy Godmother. Wesley Shofner appears as Jean-Michel, Andrew Stocking as Sebastian, and Lincoln Frost as Lord Pinkleton. The ensemble features Anna Boughton, Hanna Claiborne, Mo Franklin, Kimmie Imsland, Gabriella Lowrance, Grace Nesbitt, James Schillaci, Mia Sluis, Alyssa Stewart, Tyler VandeVenter, Piper Wempe, Elin Workman, and Melanie Zimmerman.
