Raunchy, Cliched, Funny, Entertaining, Fun

See it if you like sendups of musical theatre. I loved parody lyrics paired w/familiar tunes (including Waitress, Six and of course ALW Cinderella).

Don't see it if you’d tire of bland raunchiness or “Eff off!” being inserted too often as a placeholder for where an actual joke should be written.

Banal, Cliched, Indulgent

See it if you really enjoy poo, wee, and sex jokes. There are literally two sparkling toilets so this is the show for you.

Don't see it if want more a new take on the story. This promises to be a "parody" of Cinderella but is just the same Cinderella story raunchy chav-style. Read more

Slow, Quirky, Cliched

See it if You're up for a slow story telling show with some tacky adult jokes

Don't see it if You don't want to be picked out of the audience, and don't mind being sat within spitting distance of the 3 actors. Very small venue.

Hilarious, Delightful, Entertaining, Funny, Great acting

See it if You love rude shows. I was laughing and smiling throughout the whole thing I loved every second.

Don't see it if Your not a fan of smaller venues. It is more of a panto then a musical so if that's not your thing maybe do not go.

" '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."

“ ‘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. “
