"...a well-cast production that is rich, romantic, and simply glorious....As Ella, Joy Del Valle is bright and full of joy. She has a natural ease and an abundance of warmth that make Ella a woman you care for and want to see find her prince. Her singing voice shines with a clear delivery and understanding of the lyrics. Alex Branton does a lovely job as Topher, a man who doesn't realize until he meets Ella that he isn't as in touch with the world around him as he should be. Branton gets to deliver some of Rodgers and Hammerstein's loveliest songs, including "Ten Minutes Ago," and his voice soars on them....With a modern sensibility and a fun, updated take on the classic fairy-tale characters, Rodgers + Hammerstein's Cinderella at The Phoenix Theatre Company is a joyful and magical holiday treat." - Gil Benbrook, TalkinBroadway.com (click here to read the complete review)
"...There’s an extraordinary singing and dancing cast as scenery swirls and twirls around creating the title character’s modest home to the Palace’s opulence along with the horse drawn, pumpkin-inspired carriage. ...An exemplary cast of local favorites dazzles as the superficial characters never stop moving in Michael Barnard’s airy staging that optimistically flashes the tale’s boundless joyfulness...the ideal family holiday show" -Chris Curcio, Curtain Up Phoenix (click here to read the complete review)
"...With its sparkling, kaleidoscopic array of ever-changing colors that dominate this vibrant, lavishly designed production, CINDERELLA is perhaps the epitome of a magical, musical theatre production, the kind that has earned The Phoenix Theatre Company its reputation as a leading player for musical theatre in the Valley. It is quite spectacular." - David Appleford, Broadway World (click here to read the complete review)
