The wonderfully talented Lesley Ann Warren, who played Cinderella in the 1965 film, will be performing with the Broadway cast for an encore performance of "Ten Minutes Ago" on September 23. I'm so jealous of everyone who gets to see this. I so wish I could be there.

I wonder if they ever approached her for a brief stint as Madame?

I have no idea of her reputation, but I have always loved Lesley Ann Warren. Kinetic, unpredictable, and interesting, she's just a flat-out great actress. Hope she soars here. Oh, and if you haven't seen her performance in the film CHOOSE ME...you simply MUST!

Miss Warren does not come across well in Susan Schulman's book "Backstage pass to Broadway". If I remember correctly, while in rehearsal for the Broadway show DREAM, she refused to perform at an open rehearsal for the press, having her understudy go on for her. But when her understudy got a nice reception from the invited press, Warren decided to perform after all (and did not impress). She also refused to rehearse with the other actors, insisting that her dance assistant learn the show with the other performers, and then teach the show to Warren in a private room. Later blamed a faulty dance move on the fabric of the couch she was sitting on, and rejected 24 pair of shoes before approving the ones to wear in the show.
Yeah, she comes across as a bit.....unhinged.

Sounds like she knows she's not a good dancer and was trying to avoid embarrassing herself. Of course, it seems like her behavior had the opposite affect of what she wanted.

^ I completely agree.

My other favorite performances from her also include 'Victor/Victoria' and the 'Dancing Princesses' episode of 'Faerie Tale Theatre'.
