Assessing Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Bad Cinderella" - A Review Roundup.
TL;DR Summary
"Bad Cinderella" is a cheeky, horny semi-mess of a musical that tries to create an allegory for society's obsession with beauty. The show, which features a cast of sexy women and jacked men, is a revisionist take on the classic fairy tale set in the French-adjacent kingdom of Belleville. While the score has some lovely songs, the show's major issues lie with its pacing and whiplash in tone. Despite this, the performances of Carolee Carmello and Grace McLean make it worth watching.
