The 1997 version of '''''Cinderella''''', [[Rodgers and Hammerstein]]'s musical adaptation of [[Cinderella (novelfairy tale)|the fairytalefairy tale]], starring Brandy Norwood as the titular character and [[Whitney Houston]] as the fairy godmother, was directed by Robert Iscove, adapted by Robert L. Freedman with choreography by Rob Marshall, and produced by [[Disney|Walt Disney Television]], BrownHouse Productions and Storyline Entertainment. It premiered on [[ABC]] November 2, 1997.
 
This version had a slightly more modern feel to it and featured a cast of mixed races, along with an added character named Lionel and three other Richard Rodgers songs added to the score. The stepsisters' names as well were changed from Joy and Porscha to Calliope and Minerva, and while the original is clearly an old-fashioned medieval atmosphere, the remake is more surreal and colorful and it's pretty debatable what country they're in (mostly due to the mixed races).
