You shall go to the ball with the spectacular family pantomime Cinderella.

This Christmas Craig Revel Horwood will lead the Theatre Royal Nottingham panto cast as the Wicked Stepmother in a production packed with laugh-out-loud comedy, stunning scenery, beautiful costumes and plenty of boos and hisses!

He will be joined by panto comic Neil Hurst as Buttons and Singer, Actor and Impressionist Christina Bianco as The Fairy Godmother, alongside musical theatre’s Stephenson Ardern-Sodje as Prince Charming, Daniel Norford as Dandini and Elly Jay as Cinderella, Britt Lenting and May Tether as the Wicked Sisters.

Join Cinders as she goes from rags to riches, outwits her very wicked sisters and meets her Prince Charming.

The clock is ticking, so book your tickets early! 🕛
