Cinderella

Last Saturday, I went to watch Cinderella with Janice, Maia, Sette, DonDon and Cha, who got the last minute ticket since Boyet could not make it. We booked the tickets last year and have been waiting with anticipation. I did not know beforehand but we got seats on the top most level and I got dizzy. The nausea went away when the lights started to dim and I could not see the floor anymore.

I was expecting a musical since Lea Salonga is in it and was very disappointed. The musical score was not great, not even moving at all. It SEEMED mostly spoken monologues or dialogues. Aside from Lea, or it might be because of Lea, the other casts voices does not sound great but then again we were on the top most level. Wahahahaha

The things I liked about the play was the great costumes, beautiful stage design and great effects. Basically, my eyes enjoyed the play but my ears were sadly disappointed.

Usually if the play is not good I fall asleep, this time around Janice (who loves watching plays) fell asleep =P

Overall, if I have to do it again... I won't go.
