As part of TODAY's "Best of Broadway" series, pop star Carly Rae Jepsen and her CINDERELLA co-star Joe Carroll discuss the Broadway musical, now in its second year, and perform the enchanting number, "10 Minutes Ago" from the production. Check out the appearance below!
Now in its second year on Broadway, RODGERS + HAMMERSTEIN'S CINDERELLA continues to play to large and enthusiastic audiences at the Broadway Theatre (1681 Broadway).
About the extensions, Ms. Goodman says, "We were very happy when Carly and Fran joined the cast this winter and now we're overjoyed that they will stay with us even longer. The humor and charm they bring to the show are enormously appealing both on stage and off. Audiences love them and so do we."
Due to prior commitments during the extension weeks, Ms. Drescher will not play performances April 28 - May 5 and Ms. Jepsen will not play performances from May 16-20.
As it began its second year on Broadway in January, CINDERELLA did so with several new actors in principal roles: Ms. Jepsen as Cinderella, Ms. Drescher as the wicked stepmother, Joe Carroll as Prince Topher, Stephanie Gibsonas stepsister Gabrielle and Todd Buonopane as the rebel Jean-Michel.
