From Mamma Mia to Moulin Rouge

With stunning 360-degree digital sets and dazzling visual effects, Cinderella promises to be a feast for the eyes and ears, making it the perfect family outing for the holiday season.
A Fresh Twist on a Timeless Tale
The pantomime is made by Tom Whalley, an acclaimed writer known for his innovative takes on classic stories.
“Pantomime isn’t just a cherished British tradition; it’s often a child’s first experience of live theatre. Many performers today were once children spellbound by the magic of pantomime, and that’s why I feel a strong sense of responsibility in writing and performing it. The electric anticipation before the curtain rises, the laughter, cheering, and audience energy – it’s an experience like no other.”
