CINDERELLA swings Jordana Grolnick & Ben Lanham.
Ben Lanham, a 2009 graduate of St. Xavier high school returns to his hometown of Cincinnati with the tour of CINDERELLA the Musical, opening tonight and continuing through Jan. 18th.
Ben was named one of the Enquirer Arts All Stars 2009 (Dance) by Jackie Demaline. After graduating high school, Lanham attended Oklahoma City University where he received his BA in Dance Performance.
Ben toured internationally with WEST SIDE STORY this past year before landing the CINDERELLA tour. Being a swing, Lanham won’t be on stage every show, but local fans can see him perform Wednesday the 7th, Thursday the 15th and the Sunday matinee on the 18th.
