Cinderella


The Solihull Arts Complex presented Cinderella between Friday 11th December 2009and Sunday 10th January 2010.

Malcolm Stent starred in this his 19th pantomime at the Solihull Arts Complex.

Foreword by Malcolm Stent:
If you're a regular Solihull panto-goer ... welcome back! If you're a first-timer ... where have you been?! Our regulars will tell you that here at the Solihull Arts Complex we have dispensed large dollops of traditional pantomime fun for the last 19 years. Tradition dictates that in panto the principal boy is played by a girl and the dame by a man.. confusing isn't it?

Doubly confusing for Cinderella because the poor girl has two principal boys - Prince Charming and Dandini, and two Dames.. Alopecia and Wikipedia, her very ugly stepsisters. Fear not however... you'll quickly get used to it and be booing and cheering along with all the kids. Therein lies the secret of panto magic - grown-ups are encouraged to become kids again.
