A new pair of shoes really can change your life!From the writers of last year’s acclaimed Pantomime, Alice in Wonderland, comes their brand new look at the much loved, magical fairy tale of Cinderella. Simon Leary and Gavin Rutherford have collaborated to bring you yet another fabulous family show. It’s jammed packed with singing,dancing, up-to-the minute jokes for the adults, and a sizeable dose of magic and slapstick for the kids.Cinderella lives on Mt Victoria and nearby are her rich, evil and unkind step siblings. Things are rough - but with Cinderella's can-do attitude, an encounter with someone who may turn out tobe a Prince, and a fairy godmother with magical powers, could things possibly end happily?Circa Theatre 14 NOV - 20 DEC; 2-16 JAN
