On a similar topic, can anyone who had seen the show recently tell how is Paige as Cinderella?

I can't wait to see Nancy Opel in this. Hands down one of the best character actors I've ever seen. I saw Paige in this about a week ago. And she was fantastic. Vocally strong as well as acting and dancing. Certainly giving a star turn as Ella.

I saw Paige's first performance and was extremely impressed. I liked her as much as I liked Osnes.

Can't wait to see Paige on the tour! I hear she's great. I wish Nancy was touring too, but she's got HONEYMOON IN VEGAS waiting for her.

Thank god she doesn't stamp her Playbills.

IKR- But that was only for the whole charity thing in Fran's case- writing to her gets you actually signed (by who is unknown), but no stamp. LOL

I'm interested to see her. I found Drescher (and most of her castmates who joined with her) downright painful to sit through.

What does the Stepmother sing in this production?

She sings a line or two in various numbers but she is by no means a big singing part.

True, it's by no means a "singing" role. But does require a very skilled character actor. But let's not get it mixed up here. Nancy Opel sings her butt off! Still belting high E's.

I was thinking the same thing! She will probably act the hell out of this but it's a shame that no one will hear her sing. I really wish Madame had a song of some kind. I get chills whenever I listen to her.

Darreyl, you gotta tell us who's in that photo.

Thanks for the info. Nancy is a wonderful comidienne (sp) as well as singer.

@ madlibrarian - That would be the wonderful Erik Altemus who plays Lewis in Pippin on Broadway!

Can anyone tell how did they change the costumes for Nancy?

My grandchildren and I saw the show yesterday afternoon. While we enjoyed the show and found the two leads to be excellent, we felt Nancy Opel was no more than adequate. I've seen her do better work in other productions. Perhaps after a few more performances in front of a live audience she'll find more humor in the role.

Has Cinderella released any press photos of her in costume? She has posted a few on Instagram but I wanted to see something more official.
