IT’S rags to riches at theatre Royal Winchester from next week as Cinderella takes to the stage.

This Christmas, the theatre plays host to the wedding of the decade – and this time you are all invited!

The classic fairytale is given a TRW pantomime twist with a great storyline, lavish costumes, original songs and music, audience participation and some of your favourite actors from previous seasons.

Beautiful maiden meets handsome Prince in this classic tale. But standing in their way is the evil Baroness, eager to ensnare the Prince for one of her own hilariously hideous daughters.

Cinders makes a magical transformation for the Prince’s ball, but on the stroke of midnight the dream is shattered and she flees, leaving behind her a beautiful glass slipper.

Will the true owner of the slipper ever be found or will the ugly stepsisters dig their oversized heels in?

Audiences are guaranteed to have a ball between Wednesday and Monday, January 2.
