'The Lyric's Christmas show, Cinderella, is directed by Melly Still who also directed Coram Boy and could well turn out to be the festive show of choice.' Lyn Gardner, The Guardian

It is winter.

The Queen has declared that there will be a glittering festival of music, magic and dancing so that her son might find the girl of his dreams. Everyone is invited to his astonishing palace.

BUT…Cinderella won’t be going to the Ball - unless she manages to finish the impossible tasks her sisters have set her. Maybe her friends from the forest can help her?
 
The acclaimed director Melly Still  returns to the original story by the Brothers Grimm to create a spellbinding show for the whole family to enjoy.

With a top-notch creative team including Norwegian ice-musician, Terje Isungset, the Lyric will be transformed into a spine-tingling winter wonderland to make Cinderella the only show to see this Christmas.
