Cinderella is the latest pantomime by Author & Theatre Reviewer, Antony N Britt, with plans for more to come.
One of Antony N Britt’s aims is to remove stereotypes. Therefore, expect strong female characters who rescue helpless Princes. Also, no ugly sisters, just beautiful ones with dark personalities. And Dames these days should be more attractive drag instead of hairy men in dresses. Written for 21st century audiences, these scripts still contain, though, many traditional pantomime elements families have enjoyed for years.
The Story
Cinderella lives at Hardup Hall with her father (The Baron), sister (Bonnie) and three attractive, but not nice stepsisters (Chardonnay, Spumante and Prosecco). The stepsisters arrived with their mother (Madame Waitrose) who married the Baron. Also at the hall is Buttons, son of the live-in-cook (and part-time witch, Madame Lidl), plus numerous Kitchen Kids who appear by magic, notably when Lidl waves her wand.
Prince Charming is sent by the King to find a bride and along with companion, Dandini, visits the town of Hardup. All the women fall for the prince, much to the dismay of Buttons who loves Cinderella. If only he would declare it, though, for Cinderella secretly loves him in return.
To complicate matters, Hardup Town is in the middle of a crime wave. Not only are the villains, Deichmann and Brantano about, but so too the notorious Ninja Cat who keeps beating them to the spoils.
Will Cinderella get to the ball? Does the prince find his bride? And how can a size 5 shoe possibly fit only one person?
The truth will out.
