Uniquely performed
Outstanding production.
Stunning presentation without sets and only a few props. Absolutely loved that the same actors played both the princess and Cinderella's sisters - fantastic casting! The music is extraordinary, made Even more so by the talent of the performers.
The quality of the performance exceeded our expectations! It was amazing!
The costume changes were incredible and the actors were enthusiastic and able to keep my attention for the entire production
Solid voices, outstanding orchestra. Loved the many roles actors played, usually within several moments of each other, with flair and fun ways of moving into the next character.
Excellent performances all around, as usual, on a very difficult piece. Kudos all around
