Grace Chamberlain was as sweet and genuine a Cinderella as could be; and Jasmyn Comereski was the perfect Godmother, and her touch for the role and her interaction with the audience were something special. Both ladies also sang wonderfully. The entire cast turned in first-rate performances, and if we were passing out grades for all of the main roles, Grace and Jasmyn, Cody Williams, Curtis Lammy, Esther Martin Jenna Spencer, Heidi Halbfoerster, Sydney Crawford, Isaac Fleury, Grayson Nybeck and Brianna Ellison, each would receive an “A.” The supporting cast also did a great job, and the dances were very good. The sets were top-notch, the staging was imaginative and clever, and the transformation of pumpkins, mice and rats into a carriage, horses and footmen was marvelous. Everyone involved in Cinderella earned their ovations and their bows. This show, and Troy's a few weeks ago, are showcases of the great talent and hard work of the students in our area.
BY JOHN SHAFFER The Canton High School Drama Club presented a wonderful performance of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella. The production was directed by Susan Rockwell, who added another gem to the list of great work that she has led on the Canton stage.
