Pack your buckets and spades, we are heading to the beach for our 2025 pantomime, Cinderella!
Join Georgia May Foote (Coronation Street, Strictly Come Dancing) as our dear Cinderella, who dreams of life outside of the confines of her seaside hotel where she cares for her wicked sisters.
Luckily Cinderella has her bestie, Buttons, played by this year’s pantomime writer and Norwich favourite, Joe Tracini (Hollyoaks, Dengineers). Like every best buddy, Buttons is always on hand to keep Cinderella’s spirits up as she cooks and cleans for the wicked duo.
Putting Cinderella through her paces, the devilish sisters, played by Kenny Moore (Norfolk Drag Legend) and Owen Evans (The Nimmo Twins), want nothing more than to be waited on hand and foot… and maybe a gorgeous prince to marry.
Prince Charming, Danny Hatchard (Eastenders), has bigger dreams for himself, and alongside his personal assistant, and best pal, Dandini, Jeevan Braich (Starlight Express), is on the search for his princess and a career as a rock star… obviously!
With the fabulous Hannah Jane Fox (We Will Rock You), sprinkling magic as our Fairy Godmother, you can be sure that Cinderella’s fortunes are about to change faster than the tide.
Will Cinderella ever meet Prince Charming? Will her fairy Godmother make her dreams come true? Will there be some baddies to boo and hiss at? Of course, it’s panto!
Bursting with all the singing, dancing and laugh-out-loud silliness you could wish for, tickets are selling fast. Book now for this perfect festive treat for families, friends, and… well, everyone!
