About the Show

An irreverent musical panto parody putting Cinderella's step sisters centre stage.

We all know the story of Cinderella - and endured many dodgy pantomime versions - but who are the real stars of the story? Those ‘Ugly Sisters', of course! This is the ‘real’ story of Cinderella direct from the mouths of the “ladies” that were there.

Featuring parodies of beloved songs from the musical theatre cannon, 'A Very Very Bad Cinderella' is the naughtiest, stagey-est, panto in London.

Musical Theatre star Jodie Prenger & actor Neil Hurst pen this new musical, which is recommended for ages 16+.

Critic Reviews (3)

“ ‘A Very Very Bad Cinderella’ is a poppy and slightly trashy night out. It’s a camp presentation of a fairy tale that is certainly cabaret as much as theatre; an office party that maybe needs a few drinks to enjoy. Saying this, there are some definite laugh-out-loud moments and the entire cast sing beautifully. If you love musical theatre songs you could very well love this. “

" 'A Very Very Bad Cinderella' coasts on its own artful artlessness and the conviction that its target, admittedly fairly niche, audience will adore it. The fearless, funny performances elevate the basic writing, and the stellar vocals ensure that every number really lands, even in such a bewildering context."
