On November 25, The Real Housewives of Atlanta and Glee actress NeNe Leakes made her debut as the wicked stepmother in Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella on Broadway for its final run.

I love theater, but this was a new experience. I was kind of thrown into a cast that was already existing, so I had to come out and co-exist with them.”
