It’s about her body language. She also manages to carry her comedic energy really well while singing which I find impressive. Thank you for explaining why I loved this more than any of the others I’ve seen. 😭
Can you imagine... Phantom meeting Cinderella like I just can't keep thinking about it Phantom: I'm your angel of music! Cinderella: That makes no sense :)
Sierra is amazing!! Guess what would have been amazing?? If she turned that D5 at the end to a D6!!! She can hit it, she's been one of the best Christines on Broadway
Just because you can doesn't mean that you should. I actually think Sierra showing off and doing that would have ruined her characterization. Cinderella is not a showoff, she is incredibly humble and grounded. Bringing out a random high note just because you can would not work for this character or performance. Plus, changing what Sondheim has written is just blasphemy. Lol
Annika Wheble she literally originated Ariel. And she’s done belty roles like Fantine in Les Mis and Sarah in Guys and Dolls. Also, Phantom isn’t really an opera.

He’s a very smart prince He’s a prince who prepares Knowing this time I’d run from him He spread pitch on the stairs I was caught unawares And I thought, well, he cares This is more than just malice Better stop and take stock while you’re standing here stuck on the steps of the palace You think what do you want? You think make a decision Why not stay and be caught you think well it’s a thought What would be his response? But then what if he knew who you were when you know that you’re not what he thinks that he wants And then what if you are? What a prince would envision Although how could you know who you are till you know what you want, which you don’t, do then which do you pick? Where you’re safe out of sight and yourself but where everything’s wrong Or where everything’s right and you know that you’ll never belong And whichever you pick, do it quick cause you’re starting to stick to the steps of the palace It’s your first big decision The choice isn’t easy to make To arrive at a ball is exciting and all, once you’re there though, it’s scary And it’s fun to deceive when you know you can leave but you have to be wary There’s a lot that’s a stake, but you’ve stalled long enough cause you’re still standing stuck in the stuff on the steps Better run along home And avoid the collision Even though they don’t care, you’ll be better off there where there’s nothing to choose, so there’s nothing to lose So you pry up your shoes Then from out of the blue And without any guide You know what your decision is Which is not to decide You’ll just leave him a clue For example, a shoe And then see what he’ll do Now it’s he and not you who is stuck with the shoe In a stew In the goo And you’ve learned something too Something you never knew On the steps of the palace
Sierra is just absolutely phenomenal in this role. She really captures the vibe that Cinderella is a regular person playing the role of a princess, a lot of the other versions are too aloof and noble
What I wouldn’t have given to be at this show. Which is a funny thing to say for a girl who has lived in NYC all her life. Usually, the only thing standing in my way of a truly great Broadway performance is budget. But this time, no. I needed a flight ticket to California this time. Lol

i love that she's all slumped and wobbly. she's not a princess she's just dressed like one and i love that this actress really showed that.
Or could be she’s only wearing one heel
Or because she's technically not moving, this is her thought-process.
THATS MY GIRL SIERRA BOGESS MY DUUUUDE
Because she's lost one of her glass slippers on the sticky step.
It’s about her body language. She also manages to carry her comedic energy really well while singing which I find impressive. Thank you for explaining why I loved this more than any of the others I’ve seen. 😭
this is performed so differently than all other Cinderella’s I’ve seen, it’s very refreshing. also she makes Sondheim music sound effortless
And it often is not effortless---that she can do such is a gift.
I was expecting her to sing it really high - it's very surprising (AND COOL) to hear Sierra sing almost an entire song in a lower range
OH yeah she’s the best! You should hear her as Christine, it’s the best performance I’ve ever watched!
Oh yeah her names Sierra Boggess
Scarlett Flower yes ik she’s amazing :,)
This was so comically and intelligently performed
She made this role a lot more comedic than I have seen before
Laura Benanti was pretty funny and clumsy in the 2002 revival.

BravA
BRAVAAA!!
*long ago, it seems so long ago*
how young and innocent we were
@@justawl she may not remember me but
I love the way she seems like she’s never worn a ball gown before. It’s funny and real. So well acted.
Can you imagine... Phantom meeting Cinderella like I just can't keep thinking about it
Phantom: I'm your angel of music!
Cinderella: That makes no sense :)
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 when I read your comment I heard them in my head
Especially because in "Into the woods" she already has an Angel - it's her mother's shadow...
Omg i died laughing at this 😂😂😂
She does a brilliant job with a difficult melody and tough phrasing.
Sondheim songs seem hard to memorize to me
@@silentsmurf Likely so-they are written in free verse, so real rhyme scheme
She’s playing this as a completely reaction to something so ridiculous. I love it. Not to mention she sounds phenomenal. Wow.
This is just beautiful and so effortless I love her so much
Sierra is amazing!!
Guess what would have been amazing?? If she turned that D5 at the end to a D6!!! She can hit it, she's been one of the best Christines on Broadway
She was born to play the naive soprano princess. She just soars in those roles. :)
This was sooooo clean though! I think it sounded great!
I think it’s better to leave it how Sondheim wrote it
@@elizatoponce9375 It’s truly just high note whores being high note whores
Just because you can doesn't mean that you should. I actually think Sierra showing off and doing that would have ruined her characterization. Cinderella is not a showoff, she is incredibly humble and grounded. Bringing out a random high note just because you can would not work for this character or performance.

I'm so used to seeing her singing Christine, it's nice to hear her not singing opera
Annika Wheble she literally originated Ariel. And she’s done belty roles like Fantine in Les Mis and Sarah in Guys and Dolls. Also, Phantom isn’t really an opera.
Phantom of the Opera is not opera FFS 🙄😒😓
KingofMeereen yeah Christine is literally the only soprano role she’s played so far, she usually does mezzo stuff and is very good at it
@@melissam597 She played Cosette, which is a soprano role too.
@@elizabethtan2116 are there any bootlegs or videos of Sierra as Cosette?
This might be my favorite version of this song. I just love her.

Adorable, SIERRA BOGGESS IS THE BEST 🤩🙌🙌
She is a princess, no matter which one!!
why has sierra played every role I dream of
Remember. You are enough. You are more than enough. It is unbelievable how enough you are.
@@paulanthonyhoeflich8988 NO!!! YOU ARE ENOUGH YOU ARE SO ENOUGH IT IS UNBELIEVABLE HOW ENOUGH YOU ARE!! (This was meant to be comedic lol)
beautiful, beyond talented
He’s a very smart prince
He’s a prince who prepares
Knowing this time I’d run from him
He spread pitch on the stairs
I was caught unawares
And I thought, well, he cares
This is more than just malice
Better stop and take stock while you’re standing here stuck on the steps of the palace
You think what do you want?
You think make a decision
Why not stay and be caught you think well it’s a thought
What would be his response?
But then what if he knew who you were when you know that you’re not what he thinks that he wants
And then what if you are?
What a prince would envision
Although how could you know who you are till you know what you want, which you don’t, do then which do you pick?
Where you’re safe out of sight and yourself but where everything’s wrong
Or where everything’s right and you know that you’ll never belong
And whichever you pick, do it quick cause you’re starting to stick to the steps of the palace
It’s your first big decision
The choice isn’t easy to make
To arrive at a ball is exciting and all, once you’re there though, it’s scary
And it’s fun to deceive when you know you can leave but you have to be wary
There’s a lot that’s a stake, but you’ve stalled long enough cause you’re still standing stuck in the stuff on the steps
Better run along home
And avoid the collision
Even though they don’t care, you’ll be better off there where there’s nothing to choose, so there’s nothing to lose
So you pry up your shoes
Then from out of the blue
And without any guide
You know what your decision is
Which is not to decide
You’ll just leave him a clue
For example, a shoe
And then see what he’ll do
Now it’s he and not you who is stuck with the shoe
In a stew
In the goo
And you’ve learned something too
Something you never knew
On the steps of the palace
I looked at the tumbnail and went " when did she do Elizabeth? There is an English version?" and clicked in. I am stupid 😂
She is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS
Sierra is just absolutely phenomenal in this role. She really captures the vibe that Cinderella is a regular person playing the role of a princess, a lot of the other versions are too aloof and noble
PERFECT in every way. My fav Cinder since the original, the great Kim Crosby. LOVE Sierra.
Kim Crosby is an icon 😭
What I wouldn’t have given to be at this show. Which is a funny thing to say for a girl who has lived in NYC all her life. Usually, the only thing standing in my way of a truly great Broadway performance is budget. But this time, no. I needed a flight ticket to California this time. Lol
She kinda reminds me of a theatre teacher performing for her students
I really love the way Boggess approached this song; however I still really enjoy the way Anna Kendrick sings this song as well
I’m gonna
He's a very smart Prince
He's a Prince who prepares
Knowing this time I'd run from him
He spread pitch on the stairs
And I'm caught unawares
Well it means that he cares
This is more than just malice
Better stop and take stock
While you're standing here stuck
On the steps of the palace
All right what do you want
Have to make a decision
Why not stay and be caught
Should I give that a thought
What would be his response
But then what if he knew
Who I am when I know
That I'm not what he thinks
That he wants
But what if I am
What a Prince would envision
But then how can you know
Who you are till you know
What you want, which I don't
So then which do you pick
Where you're safe, out of sight
And yourself, but where everything's wrong
Or where everything's right
But you know that you'll never belong
And whichever you pick
Do it quick
'Cause you're starting to stick
To the steps of the palace
It's my first big decision
The choice isn't easy to make
To arrive at a ball
Is exciting and all
Once you're there, though, it's scary
And it's fun to deceive
When you know you can leave
But you have to be wary
There's a lot that's at stake
But you've stalled long enough
'Cause you're still standing stuck
In the stuff on the steps
Better run along home
And avoid the collision
Though at home they don't care
I'll be better of there
Where there's nothing to choose
So there's nothing to lose
So I'll pry up my shoes
Wait no thinking it through
Things don't have to collide
I know what my decision is
Which is not to decide
I'll just leave him a clue
For example, a shoe
And then see what he'll do
Now it's he and not you
Who is stuck with a shoe
In a stew, in the goo
And I've learned something, too
Something i never knew
On the steps of the palace
It's Christine Daae performing in the Paris Opera 🤩
Omg is this Sierra I see ! AAAhhhhh! Yes QUEEN !!! Love her as Cinderella ! Such a powerful & different take !
She was perfect for this role
In my opinion, Kim Crosby and Sierra Biggest are the best Cinderellas.
Holy jeez, Sierra look so derpy here and I love it
Sierra is amazing
This was so good!!!!!!
HER OMG😻😻😻
Does anyone know if there is a full version of the show?
any chance of full video
We are all here to ask the same eh? 😅
@Jimena Pardo It just got copyright struck :(
Yes please this cast gives me life
Is there a way to watch it somewhere else or to upload it again?
What is she referring to when she sings “and I’ve learned something too”
That she's capable of making her own decisions and doing her thing
This is very different in second person
CHRISTINE DAAE!!!!!!!
This dress is giving me Sophie Lennon vibe...
inspiration aurgh
When was this performed???
It's okay, Danielle - Prince Henry loves you!
She doesn’t sing the song right
It's okay you're differently different
