Cinderella at the Theatre Royal...

This year's pantomime at Bury St Edmunds Theatre Royal will be Cinderella! A traditional family pantomime by Peter Duncan, the Theatre Royal's panto is always a fun-filled, festive occasion for all the family!

Directed by Karen Simpson and designed by Rebecca Lee, this year's pantomime will see Cinderella and her father living in the dilapidated Hardup Hall helped by the ever-reliable Buttons, and watched over by a Fairy Godmother. Then one day, two greedy stepsisters charge into their world and make things rather unpleasant! But with a glamorous ball on the horizon, and a chance meeting with a handsome stranger in the forest, are Cinderella’s fortunes about to change? And can she get home before midnight…?

Known for its traditional, fun-filled, family pantos the Theatre Royal will once again serve up a sparkling festive treat filled with catchy songs, silly jokes, and a sprinkling of magic. Packed with dastardly villains, miraculous mice, swirling dresses and some stupendous slapstick, you’re sure to have a ball!
