KidzStuff Theatre's Cinderella: July school hols

Theatre for Children Inc

The Producers of The Pied Piper and Snow White and Rose Red
Presents

Cinderella

Written by Rachel More and
Directed by Jane Waddell

4 – 18 July

At
4 Moncrieff St., Mt. Victoria


If the shoe fits, as they say…all sorts of wonderful things can happen! In this hilarious adaptation of the much-loved fairy tale, Cinderella’s life is turned around in the most unexpected way!

All Cinderella wants is to see the world, but instead she has to wash and clean all day for her selfish step sisters, until Pierre arrives, a fairy godfather slash stylist, with a penchant for beautiful shoes and an endless supply of face wipes to help make all her dreams come true!


Rachel More is a talented, award winning director and actor, who has directed several KidzStuff shows, including Jack and the Beanstalk, The Three Little Pigs and The Sleeping Beauty (2007). We are very excited to be producing a play that she has written, for the first time.

Jane Waddell is a very well known Wellington actor and director, recently directing The Year of the Rat and currently starring in The Clean House, both at Circa Theatre. We are thrilled to have her back directing for KidzStuff after many years.


The talented cast includes David Goldthorpe, who has been in the last two KidzStuff shows, Snow White and Rose Red (2009) and The Pied Piper (2008). Before that he played the Earthworm in Fortune Theatre’s James and the Giant Peach in Dunedin, toured in Songs of the Sea with Capital E in 2007 and appeared in Troy (the musical) at Circa Theatre. Jessica Robinson, who was last seen at KidzStuff as mean Mayor Moneybags in The Pied Piper and in The Sleeping Beauty (KidzStuff 2007), but most recently as George Orwell’s mistress in The Year of the Rat at Circa, also directed by Jane Waddell. Gavin Rutherford, who has appeared in many productions, including Red Riding Hood – The Pantomime (2008) and recently, Rock ‘n Roll at Circa and made his KidzStuff debut in The Princess and the Pea (2006) and Bryony Skillington, who has just finished filming a 26 episode children’s sitcom for English Television and is back with KidzStuff after thoroughly entertaining audiences in Puss ‘n Boots and The Pied Piper (2008).
