Cinderella

This Christmas, Shakespeare North Playhouse bring you the most popular fairytale of them all, a spellbinding new production of Cinderella.

Tia Larsen takes the title role in the fairytale favourite with a very special Prescot twist in a captivating new adaptation by writer Nick Lane. Tia is joined by a super talented cast of Emma Grace Arends, Emma Bispham, Thomas Cotran, Elliott Kingsley and Charlie Mae McKevitt. Directed by Nicole Behan.

In the Kingdom of Prescotisia lives a young woman called Cinderella, whose world is turned upside down when her beloved mother suddenly disappears, and her father remarries. Even worse, it turns out Cinders’ new stepmother, Filania, is awful – and so are her two dreadful daughters!

When Prince Flarf of Crosbinia decides to throw a huge party, they are determined to be celebrated as the belles of the ball while Cinderella is left home alone.

But all is not lost, help is at hand in the form of Fairy 23780, better known as Mandy, who is fresh from Fairy Godmother school and excited to be able to assist Cinderella to find her missing mum and win the heart of the handsome prince, but will he find the owner of the glass slipper?

Cinderella is packed with magical moments, your favourite tunes, lots of laughter and a truly heartwarming message, this new production is the perfect family show for the festive season.
