Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella Reviews

Around The Town Chicago - Highly Recommended

"...This is a slick production using a small cast. Two members of the ensemble end up playing a number of roles including a baker ( a marvelous comedy touch by Garrett Lutz) and Herald by Ron King. Rachel Boylan's costumes are perfect including the dress worn by Cinderella that with a turn or two becomes a ball gown. Magical! One of the highlights of the children's productions is the number of children who come in costume, following te theme of the show and the other is the Q & A when the curtain call s over. Many leave the theater at this point, but I truly find it fascinating to hear the questions from the children. They want to know and yearn t learn! Thank you Marriott for bringing young people to the theater so they can grow into our future audiences."

"...Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella, based on Charles Perrault's French fairy tale "Cendrillon, ou la petite pantoufle de verre" ("Cinderella" or "The Little Glass Slipper"), was their only musical written for television. More than 100 million people viewed the 1957 broadcast starring Julie Andrews. Not surprisingly, due to its immense popularity, it was later adapted for Broadway. The Marriott Lincolnshire Theatre adaptation for young theatergoers engages young and old alike."
