The Broadway Babies are dusting off our VHS tapes and pulling out our Lisa Frank gel pens to tackle this iconic production: The Wonderful World of Disney’s “Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella”! Starring Brandy “sittin up in her cellar” Norwood, Whitney “I am your actual boss” Houston, and Bernadette “how can I make this power dynamic less problematic” Peters! Join Alex and Daisha as they sift through this fairy tale's long production history, the behind-the-scenes drama and the optics of color-blind casting, and discuss whether or not this movie was as progressive as it wanted to be at its inception.    Cast recording: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Film: Amazon   Songs: "Impossible," performed by Whitney Houston “My Own Little Corner,” by Brandy Norwood “Falling in Love With Love,” by Bernadette Peters "Stepsisters' Lament," by Natalie Deselle and Veanne Cox "It's Possible," by Brandy and Whitney Houston Music by Richard Rodgers and lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II   Show Notes: Shondaland.com's 20th anniversary herstory of the Cinderella film has all the tea, listeners. WHY ARE YOU DOWN THERE: This behind-the-scenes video special on Brandy and Whitney's relationship shows more than just the memes. Like night and day: Brandy's take on "Roxie" was just bursting with personality, no wonder they waited outside in lights to see her! Audra McDonald and Mary Testa's own version of the "Stepsisters' Lament" is its own level of iconic. Speaking of the Stepsisters, Veanne Cox might also just have one of the best renditions of "Getting Married Today." Veanne has the range: Here she is getting destroyed by Julia Roberts for having two wrong feet with ugly shoes. The 1965 version with Ginger Rogers is free via YouTube TV!
