Cinderella (Christmas 2026)

You shall go to the ball next Christmas as Cinderella and friends will be arriving, carriage and all, at Chelmsford Theatre for the 2026 pantomime spectacular!

Cinderella is kind, friendly and spreads joy wherever she goes. She lives at her family home with her rotten stepsisters who are cruel to Cinderella and make fun of her caring nature.
Undeterred by their wickedness, Cinderella happily gets on with the daily demands thrown her way, until she meets a dashing stranger and receives a royal invitation that will transform her life forever.

Expect magic, mayhem, royal balls, fairy godmothers, major glow ups and a touch of ugly! Will our Cinders ever make it to the ball? It’s very likely, but you’d better come along just in case!
