Let the Ball begin!!! Last night,
Andrew Lloyd Webber‘s long awaited musical adaptation of the classic story of
Cinderella officially made its world premiere debut in London’s West End. This new take on the legendary fairy tale (led by West End favorite
Carrie Hope Fletcher) also marks as the first new original musical to debut in over a year and a half since the COVID-19 pandemic.
At that first performance, Lloyd Webber himself took centerstage to a limited 50% seating capacity audience thanking them for their patience in this long interval. All of this comes from with Live Theater being shutdown and recent strict policies from the UK Government on the Delta Variant. Taking it slow and safe.
PLEASE NOTE: According to the show’s social media, sadly the cast will not be doing the post-show stage door at this time. Please remember not to RANT at the incredible talents. We know how much you love them all. This is for everyone’s safety.
The production is currently in previews at London’s Gillian Lynne Theatre. The official Opening Night is set for July 14th, 2021.
Break a leg to the entire cast, crew, musicians, and creative team!!

Ever wonder why all Disney heroes lack parental support? If you haven?t noticed, in most Disney films and fairy tales mothers tend to be weak or absent ? (Starting with Snow White, to Cinderella, Bambi, Peter Pan?and the?search for a mother 
figure, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, The Lion King… and this goes all the way up to Finding Nemo?and?Tangled,?in which?Rapunzel must battle her evil mother and venture off on her own to find her real parents.) ?This absent mother dynamic strengthens the hero or heroine, ensuring that they must struggle on his or her own and, fighting their own battles until they reach their?self-discovery.? The end result?tends to be?family or love, once they have proven their independence. Some would say that this?is related to Walt Disney’s personal loss of his mother in 1938, but others would argue that most of these Disney stories were already created as fairytales prior to being made into a Disney film. What do you guys think?
Speaking of independence, “Nemo” is latin for “no one.” Also, backwards it spells “Omen.” Coincidental? I think not!
