CINDERELLA has a special New Year party at the palace – join her and Bridport Pantomime Players at the Electric Palace from Wednesday 31st January to Saturday 3rd February, at 7.30pm with a Saturday matinee at 1.30.

The Players promise an unforgettable performance filled with laughter, music, and glittering fun, directed by Greg Horton, bringing everyone’s favourite pantomime story to life, with Jess Goldstone as the enchanting heroine.

Witness Cinderella’s rags-to-riches transformation as she escapes the clutches of her wicked stepmother, Lady Gargoyle (Amy Carlile) and stepsisters Beyoncé and Britney (Holly Gibbs and Justine Gawen). With the help of her Fairy Godmother (Hatti Amos) and her loyal friend Buttons (Amy Day) she is sure to prove that true love conquers all. King Hubert (James Oldfield) and Queen Harriet (newcomer Lauren Good) are determined to find a bride for their son, not realising that magic is at work.

Laughter and excitement will be palpable as Cinderella eventually finds her Prince Charming (Johanna Leins) ably assisted by his servant, Gently, (Alice Scadding), but not without a few twists and hilarious moments along the way; especially when it comes to a certain love machine created by Professor Von Klaptrapp (Ross Hughes).

The Players are joined by dancers from The Lyric School of Dancing. Be prepared to sing along, cheer for your favourite characters and become part of the action as the magic unfolds before your eyes.
