“Cinders: The Real Story” is written by David Tristram, author of the highly successful “Little Grimley” plays, many of which have been performed by the Drama Group. “Cinders” is a refreshing and humorous twist on the classic Cinderella tale, one of the most beloved stories of all time. Packed with wit, satire, and delightful character dynamics, this reimagining explores the untold side of the fairy tale, revealing the quirky and often absurd events that lead to Cinders’s rags-to-riches transformation.
Director Sue I’Anson said of the play “A pantomime in March! Why not? If you love pantomime or just fancy a jolly good laugh, ‘Cinders: The Real Story’ is a must to see. We are great having fun rehearsing and I’m sure you’re in for a treat. This has all the traditions of Pantoland, along with a few twists. So come along, cheer the goodies and boo the baddies. Bring your best jokes (there will be prizes for the best ones) and join in with the audience participation number. We can’t wait to see you all.”
Drama Group Chair, Jon Mackley, said “The audiences enjoyed our recent evening of entertainment in September – three very different comedies and they were very enthusiastic when we raised the idea. Everyone loves a pantomime and we know the audience are going to have a great time. Endearing, entertaining, and full of surprises, this is a version of Cinderella you won't want to miss!”
