Cinderella has appeared in Sondheim’s Into the Woods, Rodger and Hammerstein’s take on the fairy tale, and now, in Emerald Fennell and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s, she gets to be bad.
In the exceptionally beautiful kingdom of Belleville, the fields are idyllic, the prince is charming, and the townsfolk are ravishing. Only one stubborn peasant stands in the way of absolute perfection: Cinderella. To the flawless residents and royals of Belleville, this damsel is the distress. But at opening night, she was also the belle of the ball! Take a look at Emilio Madrid’s coverage of the star-studded celebration.
