Cinderella running until mid-January (From Wilts and Gloucestershire Standard)

Cinderella running until mid-January

THE old Queen has no intention of retiring, and Prince Charming rejects all the potential brides offered up by the crafty courtier Dandini.

The Ugly Sisters' addiction to catalogue-shopping has brought Baron Hardup to the brink of ruin, despite the resourcefulness of his servant Buttons.

The beautiful Cinderella is unbowed by the endless cruelties of her stepsisters but one day she allows herself to wish that things might change.

Thanks to her Fairy Godmother they do, but there's always a sting in the tale when you tangle with Fairyland and everyone has to watch the clock...there's more to life than being the Belle of the Ball.

Join Oxford Playhouse this Festive season for the world's most loved and magical 'rags-to-riches' fairy tale.

This new adaptation of Cinderella retains all the wonders of the timeless classic - a prince charming, a fairy godmother, a pumpkin that turns into a carriage and mice that become horses with much, much more.

Suitable for ages four and over. It's on now until January 15 so don't miss it. Box Office 01865 305305.
