Indeed...I think it's kind of an underlying thing that she wanted a prince. In "A Very Nice Prince" she keeps asking Cinderella about the prince and then they both sing "he's a very nice prince" the Baker's Wife is all whimsical and Cinderella is all confused. Then she says "What I wouldn't give to be in your shoes"
I'm sorry...I'm awful...but I do sooo love this musical and there are so many subtext kind of things that you have to look for. The Baker's Wife claims she doesn't wish...."Just within reason" but she obviously pines for the prince....sigh....oh I love this musical.
I get involved...I'm like analyzing a novel...I feel like Mr. French....hehe....
