Pantomimes and Plays for young people include
Aladdin,
Cinderella, Goldilocks & The Three Bears, Ali Baba & The 40

"Cinderella" by TLC Creative
Many
thanks to all who was involved with or came to support the show. It was
a great success. Please see a copy of the review below from the Bath
Chronicle on Saturday 24th Feb.
"If
ever there was a show that proved that size isn't everything, this is
it.This version may only have a cast of 12, but it is hugely
entertaining and had its local community in stitches.
It's
also wonderfully inventive - the best joke of the evening occurs in the
ball scene, obviously something of a challenge for a small-scale
production, but one that is carried off with aplomb.
The comic content of the show is the most significant, partly thanks to
a pair of wildly over-the-top ugly sisters, played by Ian Matthews and
Darryl Almond.
Luke John Emmett - director, musical director, choreographer, lighting
and sound designer - also deserves praise for his portrayal of Buttons.
The other outstanding reason for the show's success is Kirsty Hibbert,
as Cinderella. She's only ten and her tininess makes the grossness of
the Ugly Sisters even more evident.
Some of the jokes are distinctly creaky but overall it's a production
with bags in it for all ages. The show finishes tonight. For tickets
call 859974"
