The couple, Jason Aronne and Kunal Ghose, lives in San Diego and have been together for two years.

This would be a best place to start our happily ever after like Cinderella and her Prince.'

It's Possible! Rodgers + Hammerstein's Cinderella has finally opened on Broadway. Performing this show every night is a dream come true! For so many months, I have wondered and dreamed of what this show would actually become. On opening night, March 3rd, I was so proud of the show that had been created. I was thrilled and grateful to be part of it, and it makes me so happy to believe that Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II would feel the same way.
