The Broadway production featured a book by Dick Scanlan and Richard Morris and a new score by Scanlan and Jeanine Tesori. It opened on April 18, 2002 and ran for more than 900 performances. It won six Tony Awards, including Best Musical.

Riegel has appeared on Broadway in The Will Rogers Follies and Les Miserables, in which she played Young Cosette. She is best known for her role as Bianca Montgomery on the ABC daytime drama All My Children, for which she received the Emmy.
