What's your favorite fairy tale?

If you could cast any actors and actresses ever in a movie version of that fairy tale, who would you pick?

- There's an Italian opera called La Cenerentolla (Cinderella). In this story it's actually more about the prince, Romiro, who runs around in disguises with the help his valet, Dandini, and Romiro's tutor, Alidoro (who is also the fairy godmother role in the story). I've always thought that if this opera were turned into a film/musical, Il Volo, would be perfect for the roles of the prince, the valet and the tutor:

L-R: Gianluca Ginoble as Prince Romiro, Ignazio Boschetto as Dandini, the valet and Piero Barone as Alidoro, the tutor.

For Cenerentolla (whose name is Angelina in the opera) I think Hannah Dodd would be perfect! She reminds me so much of Lily James!

Do you have a favorite fairy tale movie?

Ever After

Do you have a favorite book that retells a fairy tale?

- This book is kind of the Ever After equivalent of Beauty and the Beast retellings. I read it several times years ago and even though I've read other retellings, this is still the best.

 If you got to be in a stage or film production of a classic fairy tale, what fairy tale would you want to be in, and who would you like to play?

- A dual role of Odile and Odette in the Swan Princess (I always had this idea that they were identical twins that were secretly separated by Rothbart when they were born) or the fairy Godmother in Cinderella

Do you like fairy tales by Hans Christian Andersen or the Grimm Brothers best? Or someone else's?

- If I want to be scared out of my mind then the Grimm brothers. If I want to cry uncontrollably than Hans Christian Anderson. 

What more obscure fairy tale do you think more people should know about?

- Snow White and Rose Red was always a sweet story
