 its possible, Feb 23, 2013 |
| reviewer: D. C. from Brick, New Jersey |
| If you loved the original with Leslie Ann Warren, you will love this show. Costumes are great. Especially changing from rags to a beautiful ball gown. Stepsisters were very funny. Fairy godmother wonderful voice. The only thing i wished if the actors portraying Cinderella and Prince sang a bit louder. It is not the Disney version. I wouldn't recommend it for young children. I loved it, just like the original. |

 Amazing, Feb 25, 2013 |
| reviewer: Loved it from Lubbock. Texas |
| We have watched numerous broadway productions and loved this one! While I went with my husband, we remarked numerous times how much our 4 year old daughter would have loved it. It is not the exact Disney remake and I didn't expect it to be. The performers were amazing and the set was wonderful. |

A truly magical Broadway musical!, Feb 25, 2013 |
| reviewer: Tony from Washington DC. |
| This show was amazing. The actors were top notch, the sets and costumes were amazing, songs were amazing, of course from R&H, the choreography and direction was very well done, and the updated book by Douglas Carter Beane was funny and lighthearted in the right ways. The transformations alone are worth the ticket price. Take your children and take them with you to see what a real Broadway musical looks like. Run don't walk |

All Ages Astonished, Feb 26, 2013 |
| reviewer: Scott from York, PA |
| I saw the production with my family this weekend -- all of whom are familiar with the 1950s/1960s versions of the R&H production -- and from 11 years old to 73 years old, we all absolutely LOVED it -- my 11-year-old niece sitting next to me actually gasped in awe countless times throughout the show! Laura Osnes was born to play the role of Cinderella, and Victoria Clark's fairy godmother was sung and acted beautifully. Harriet Harris and Ann Harada were charming as the "evil" characters, and Santino Fontana was great as the prince. I'm not sure what show some of the negative reviewers saw, but it certainly wasn't the same one I saw. This show should be around for a long time -- one of the best family-friendly shows running in New York right now. |

 If it ain't broke why make flawed atttempts to fix it, Feb 27, 2013 |
| reviewer: Paisley from Long Island, New York |
| I saw the show opening night with a friend, a generation gap between us. The costumes,cast, singing voices (the announcer: The Prince is having a ball... was a standout.)sets, orchestra, lighting and special effects truly rated a 5! However, the needless "updating" was ridiculous. The "updates" were stolen from Harry Potter,(yes, the Brothers Grimm did it first and best)It was a nice touch that one of the step sisters wasn't much of a bad egg after all, but the scene stealing Ann Harada's step sister was a rip off of Melissa Mc Carthy's "Bridesmaids' character. For young girls growing up with this version of the prince, I feel sorry for them. The Prince is clueless, and needs Ella to clue him into what's really going on in his kingdom.Rodgers and Hammerstein, people not Disney. If being a 21st century sophisticate means stealing from other works and throwing in political garbage, count me out. Cinderella is a FAIRY TALE, don't we live with enough reality these days. |
