The Story

Catch a never-seen-before tale of rags to riches this Christmas season!

Cinderella needs to obey her evil stepmother and take care of all the housework. One day, as the stepmother and stepsisters head to a ball, leaving her behind, a fairy godmother appears and gives her the opportunity to attend the ball. But will Cinderella actually make it to the party? This production is unlike any Cinderella story you’ve seen before. How wicked is the stepmother? How will the Fairy Godmother guide the girl? With lots of twists and turns, you won’t expect what’s to come.

The cast

This new adaptation doesn’t rely on state-of-the-art technology or risky stunt sequences to impress its audiences. Instead, it picks up a cast of renowned and talented actors to stage a brilliant show. Timmika Ramsay makes her first Lyric appearance as the lead, Cinderella. Apart from being in productions like “Magna Carta” and “Madagascar”, she has also been part of TV shows such as “Adult Material” and “Enterprice”. Joining her is Shobna Gulati as Madame Meanie. Her credits include “Everybody’s Talking About Jamie”, “Richard III”, as well as various TV and West End productions.

Rhys Taylor, who play Fairy Fredbare, was in “Punks and Raging Queens”, “Elegies for Nagels”, as well as the immensely popular “The Book of Mormon”. Gabriel Fleary (Don Quixote) plays the Prince, Jodie Jacobs (Myth, Unexpected Joy) is Buttons, and the role of Popsy will experience Lauren Samuels’ (Bend it Like Beckham, We Will Rock You) skills.

The creatives

Jude Christian was the writer and director of “Dick Whittington” in last year’s production, which ran at the Lyric Hammersmith. This time, he unleashes his creativity for the brand-new adaptation of Cinderella. Corin Buckeridge is also behind the production. Tinuke Craig – the director of “Random/Generations” currently working on “Vassa” and “The Colour Purple” – oversees Cinderella’s direction. You will enjoy Shelley Maxwell’s choreography and Lorna Munden’s sound arrangements. Completing the creative team is Joanna Cichonska (musical director), Joshua Pharo (lighting designer), and Frankie Bradshaw (designer).

So, prepare for the ball with Cinderella tickets and enjoy the party! Grab hold of your tickets, watch the fabulous panto, and fall in love with the story once again.
