Packed with all the traditional ingredients of laugh out loud comedy, spectacular dancing, live music and singing - not to mention a large sprinkling of Cornish heart and fairytale magic - our homegrown retelling of the classic CINDERELLA story promises to be a ball for adults and children alike. Our very own Cinders - Ashley - is a girl with a heart of gold and the voice of an angel whose life is changed forever when she finds herself swept up as a masked contestant in the local, Rock and Rhythm Championships, sharing centre stage with a charming Prince. Will she find the courage to find her own voice? Will her true identity be unmasked? Is this her chance to escape from the humdrum of everyday life and transform from rags to riches? Join us on this happy ever after Cornish adventure as we whisk our Cinders from a pantry to a party via a pumpkin!

Gayle : 01Jan22:
It was terrible! Nothing at all like i was lead to believe! Cinderella with a modern day theme!!! No just load of nonsense!! And to think they used the review the Cornwall live gave them joke!!! No not fun .

Disappointed : 23Dec21:
It was awful I was told it was going to be Cinderella it ended up being very confusing didn’t understand what was going on and thought I had come to the wrong show ended up leaving half way threw do not waste your money on this !

We went to my see Cinderella at Hall for Cornwall today and were totally disappointed. We had 91 mother with us and felt really let down and embarrassed with what we were seeing there was no resemblance of a pantomime and felt we were there under false pretences and had been robbed of £81. We were entertained more with the number of bored children running around . I personally wouldn’t give any stars at all absolutely wasted afternoon.

Liz: 06Dec21:
Expect family friendly show. Misrepresented. Disgusting.

Jules: 05Dec21:
We went to see Cinderella yesterday. We were very disappointed. It was not age appropriate. The contest host who resembled a known dodgy 70's DJ was quite alarming. There was not enough interaction with the crowd, very disappointing. The brothers were funny and entertaining. The performers were all good but I feel the story was lacking. We went to see a traditional pantomime and sadly this was not what we got. Overall it was not Cinderella it was a show and could have been a show in its own right.

Disappointed : 05Dec21:
Would like to give no stars. Children bored as didn’t understand what was going on. No real interaction with audience and 5 year olds left wondering where Cinderella was. Not a cheap day out and felt very sorry for the children

Ann Edwards: 04Dec21:
Not impressed with this show. Continuous hum of young children who were unable to follow story line. Very disappointing.
