I directed a high school production of R&H's CINDERELLA many years ago. I realized then that the plot is really thin. Disney added all sorts of diversions with birds and animals. Obviously this production incorporated revolting peasants.

What sells this show is the score, the special effects and its scenic design. Hopefully this new production will succeed.

I see they haven't changed the step sisters hair style...

Wow-Thanks for that clip of Ms Peters singing 'Falling in Love'--I had no idea she could hit those high notes--admittedly that was a while ago-but again-Wow!

@SweetLips Which notes didn't you know she could hit? The low ones or the high ones?

On a side note: I cannot believe some idiot asked this question in the comments on Youtube,

"If there was a Sing-Off between bernadette peters? and helen carter who would win?"

WTH? Really now?

Dear g.d.etc.

No problem with getting this all done and rehearsed prior to the March 3 opening. Thanks for your helpful suggestions. Please send me your contact information and I'll send you over a contract putting you in complete charge.

Sincerely

Robyn Goodman

Hey, not your fault you bought a turkey, lady. Shut down production for a few weeks, move the opening forward, and implement the changes.

(In case you haven't guessed, I know you're not Robyn Goodman, but I'm not in this business to play nice, and I'm clearly not out for people to like me, unlike some of the other producers in this industry. You don't have to date to accomplish things in this business, just keep all the egos on an even keel. If what I said doesn't make sense, then fine, give me ****. But if it works, it works, regardless of my tone.)
