Terrace Plaza Playhouse Presents Cinderella The timeless enchantment of a magical fairy tale is reborn with the Rodgers & Hammerstein hallmarks of originality, charm, and elegance. The performance was originally presented on television in 1957 starring Julie Andrews. It was rebroadcast in 1965 starring Lesley Ann Warren, and was once again remade and broadcast in 1997, which starred Brandy as Cinderella and Whitney Houston as her Fairy Godmother. As adapted for the stage, with great warmth and more than a touch of hilarity, the hearts of children and adults alike still soar when the slipper fits. The Terrace Plaza Playhouse production is directed by Shelby Ferrin, and stars the following: Cinderella: Josie Gochberg, Cariel Hansen Prince Christopher: Mark Noyce, Brady Stratton Fairy Godmother: Kristy Foo ,April Henderson Stepsisters: Ashley Lynn Buie, Jordanne Burges, Laura Gardiner, Sami Simpson Stepmother: Becky Montgomery Queen: Laura Crossett, Julie Olsen King: Andrew Cole, Jim Stratton Ticket Information Adults: $12 & $10; Children: $9 & $7 Senior and student tickets are discounted one dollar off of the regular ticket price.
