Directed by Gary Griffin, the musical fairytale will play the St. Louis venue July 21-27.

"Heather's extraordinary talent, passion and humor will be thrilling in this role," Griffin commented. "When we met to talk about the part I was thrilled by her ideas and energy. She's going to give The Muny audience a once in a lifetime experience."

"So many legendary performers in the history of the American musical have played The Muny," added artistic director and executive producerMike Isaacson. "Angela Lansbury, Bernadette Peters, Tommy Tune, Yul Brynner, Ethel Merman… the list goes on and on. How thrilled we are to have Heather in this part, and how honored we are to add her name to this list."
