"Critics Quotes"
"(Gabriel Navarro performs with an unguarded boyish innocence but with a regal voice).""The chemistry between Ms. Tucker’s downtrodden ‘Ella and Mr. [Navarro’s] lovestruck Prince Topher, is resoundingly right.""And when the Prince from his throne picks up the song’s refrain of “Just as long as I stay in my own little chair,” it cleverly cements their kinship as dreamers confined by their station. "" ‘Ella’s enchanting "Ten Minutes Ago" duet with Mr. Navarro, which is equivalent to Romeo and Juliet’s “palmers’ kiss” scene, is sung quite fetchingly here."" the soaring lovers’ duet “Do I Love You Because You’re Beautiful?” performed with rapturous gusto by Mr. Navarro and Ms. Tucker."By Chris Daniels
