In the promotional image and video for the upcoming production—running first in Washington, D.C. from Jan. 16 to Feb. 12 before coming on up to the Greet White Way in 2015—Hudgens, 26, channels both Hepburn and the ladies of turn-of-the-20th-century Paris in an elegant black and white ball gown. Her look is accessorized with opera gloves and, of course, diamonds.
