I forgot about that. I’m surprised some of the lyrics are being revised and “so not naive” is still in.

Oof these lyrics are really questionable “Like a damsel in distress in a torn party dress”?!?! “I was not a hard one to convince girls like me don’t end up with a Prince”?!?! This is sounding very much like “Diana” to me

I’m can’t wait for next week, to see how the show has changed. Should be really interesting.

I’m still wondering if we’ll get a new opening number, more ballads, a song for Carolee Carmello? Will they reinstate that sea snake song? So many possibilities.

Maybe there was one in the Webber Wizard of Oz and it got repurposed for Cinderella."
Webber said Zippel gave him the idea of "I know I have a heart because you broke it" and he started writing the song on a plane, so it wasn't written before for Wizard of Oz.

I was mostly joking but good to know all the same. Now I can’t stop picturing the Tin Man belting it out.

Seeing it a few days after, on the 22nd. Saw it pop up on TDF yesterday and moved quickly to grab tix. Trying to keep an open mind—seeing it with a friend who caught the show in London so he can give some perspective on the changes. FWIW he did not like it in London.

$30 in person rush, digital rush and digital lottery. That MIGHT make me see it.
Maybe.

Does Linedy have scheduled nights off? I know she has an alternate, so I'm wondering who's on when, if it's arbitrary, or set. I'd like to see both ladies at some point.

Was too late for the deal, but Show-Score has multiple Member Nights where you basically get $25 seats. Still can add yourself to the waitlist!

Did somebody say her name?
The new musical Bad Cinderella begins previews tomorrow night (February 17) at the Imperial Theatre, prior to a March 23 official opening. Leading the company of the West End import are Linedy Genao, Jordan Dobson, Carolee Carmello, Grace McLean, Sami Gayle, Morgan Higgins, and Christina Acosta Robinson. Bad Cinderella features music by the legendary Andrew Lloyd Webber with lyrics by David Zippel, and a book by Emerald Fennell. JoAnn M. Hunter choreographs, and Laurence Connor directs.
“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.”
Who’s heading to the ball? (If you are, best give your reports by midnight!)

Well they've invited every influencer and their mother, put 2 weeks of tickets on show score, and are offering a 24 hr flash sale as arguably the most anticipated new musical of the season....that has already has a viral marketing campaign..

Not good.
Around $2 million - which is two weeks

Do people buy in advance as much anymore? Particularly for a new show?
This is going to be interesting to watch. There's no names attached to it (apart from ALW and Emerald as the creatives). Apart from those interested in the ins and outs of theatre, most don't know much about the show and the ups and downs of the West End production. Its very unlike ALW to have a softer open like this, but if I remember correctly RUG isn't running lead on producing this. So perhaps they're hoping to build good word of mouth and hope for generally positive reviews like they received in London

For my fellow board members who are scenic design nerds like myself, it looks like a show curtain has been added for Broadway (the West End production just had the village set onstage for the pre show). There are pictures on instagram for those who are curious. It’s very whimsical - I like it!

That’s a really beautiful show curtain.

I must say that the curtain is beautiful! There are definitely some similarities to the London set just from seeing that picture.
