Join us for family fun in Chesterfield this Christmas
Cinderella at the Winding Wheel Theatre.
Cinderella is our pantomime at the Winding Wheel Theatre, the show opens on Friday 29 November with performances planned until Tuesday 31 December.
Down on her luck and cursed with evil stepsisters, Cinderella’s destiny is in the hands of her best friend Buttons, the magic of a Fairy Godmother and a clock that strikes midnight.
Pantomime comedy, calamities and chaos from larger-than-life colourful characters help tell the story, with the end of act one cumulating in a spectacular scene where Cinderella magically transforms from her rags to Princess riches and steps into the carriage that will take her to Prince Charming’s ball.
Former Strictly Come Dancing professional, Dancing on Ice winner, personal trainer and TV personality James Jordan will star in the role of Dandini and CBeebies Katrina Bryan (Molly and Mack) in the role of the iconic Fairy Godmother.
Stepping into the high heels and larger than life characters of the legendary pantomime sisters is Oliver Gray and Dean Horner. Britain's Got Talent's Ashley Emerson will be Prince Charming, with West End star Imy Hayes as Cinderella and comedian Steve Best as Buttons.
You can find out more and book tickets on the Chesterfield Theatres website.
