Get ready to be swept away by the timeless tale of Cinderella, the definitive rags to riches story that has charmed and inspired audiences all over the world. Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella is the new Broadway adaptation of the classic musical. This contemporary take on the treasured fairy tale features some of their most beloved songs including “In My Own Little Corner,” “Impossible,” and “Ten Minutes Ago” in this romantic (and hilarious) update.
Nominated for nine 2013 Tony Awards including Best Revival of a Musical, critics called it, “Reassuringly old-fashioned and refreshingly irreverent, sentimental and snarky, sincere and ironic, all at once!”
