Full casting has been announced for the North Shore Music Theater’s production of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella, August 22-September 10. Directed by Charles Repole, the show will open officially on August 24.

Heading the cast are Deborah Lew (Cinderella), Ryan Silverman (Prince Charming), Maureen Brennan (Fairy Godmother), Terry Burrell (Queen Constantina), Joyce Chittick (Joy), David Coffee (King Maximillian), Natalie Joy Johnson (Portia), Lisa McMillan (Stepmother), and Gregory Sheppard (Herald).

The ensemble will include Tabb, Kristen Calgaro, Debbi Fuhrman, Paul J. Gallagher, Thom Graham, Kathleen Hatch, Garett Hawe, Arielle Jacobs, Jane LaBanz, Andrew Pacho, Katie Rayle, Nathan Scherich, and 11 local schoolchildren.

The show’s creative team includes Karen Azenberg (choreography), Edward Reichert (musical direction), Dex Edwards (sets), Joanna E. Murphy (costumes), Martin E. Vreeland (lighting), John A. Stone (sound), and Gerard Kelly (hair and wig design).

Cinderella was originally scheduled to part of NSMT’s 2005 season, but a devastating fire at the theater caused the run to be canceled after only four performances.
