Those are the right ages! However, it so deceiving. In the production that Chita Rivera was in and in the new musical I would guess that all the actress look about the same age, which is about 30ish. In the production with Chita, Sandra Oh was Adela...and this was like in 2004.
I've also seen it at a university production too and ofcourse they all looked about the same age too.

Yeah. The movie's actually pretty good. And it's in English. Which makes it really easy to follow.
