Cinderella

Get ready for the ultimate festive treat as Cinderella bursts onto the Fairfield Halls stage in a glittering pantomime spectacular from UK Productions Ltd – packed with dazzling magic, laugh-out-loud comedy, and West End-scale glamour.
 
This is no ordinary pantomime. Expect breathtaking new sets, jaw-dropping costumes dripping with sparkle, sensational choreography, and show-stopping performances that will leave the whole family spellbound.
 
Produced by UK Productions Ltd., the acclaimed team behind many of the UK’s most spectacular pantomimes, this production is written by award-winning writer Jon Monie. Cinderella combines all the traditions of panto – romance, villains, heroes, and heart – with a dazzling modern staging that pushes the boundaries of family Christmas entertainment. From boo-worthy baddies to belly laughs and moments of pure enchantment, it’s the perfect festive escape for audiences of all ages.
 
Charlie Guest is back as Buttons! Baron Hardup may bluster and bumble his way on stage, but it’s Buttons who provides the heart of the story, arriving with warmth, quick wit, and an infectious sense of mischief. His easy charm and playful connection with you, the audience, will bring balance to the chaos and help the whole show sparkle.
 
Joining Charlie is pop powerhouse turned panto royalty, Lee Latchford-Evans from Steps, as Prince Charming. Sweeping onto the stage with confidence, charm and a sparkling smile, he’ll be quickly winning you over with his easy humour and heroic spirit.
This year’s production welcomes comedy duo Luke Attwood and Brandon Nicholson as the delightfully boo-worthy baddies, Melody and Harmony Hard-Up. Having performed together in pantomimes for the past seven years, the pair bring a wealth of experience, razor-sharp comedy, and larger-than-life stage presence.
 
Rachel Grundy will be stepping into Cinderella’s glass slippers. With an exceptional voice, warmth, and stage presence, she has made her a firm favourite with audiences and will step into the iconic glass slippers as she leads this enchanting production alongside a star-studded cast!
 
Known for their drag personas Miss Lola Lush (Brandon) and Lexi Leven (Luke), the duo have entertained audiences across the UK and internationally for nearly a decade. With backgrounds spanning pantomime, cabaret, and musical theatre, their bold humour, quick wit and fabulous flair promise plenty of laugh-out-loud moments for Croydon audiences this festive season.
 
Bursting with sparkle, laughter and spectacular surprises, this is Croydon’s No.1 family pantomime – the show where dreams really do come true. From the glittering ballroom to the magical midnight transformation, every moment shines with wonder. Make this Christmas unforgettable and share the magic of Cinderella with the ones you love – because no family celebration is complete without a little panto magic.
 
This is not just a pantomime – it’s the Christmas event Croydon has been waiting for.
