Cinderella

Islington's new family pantomime!

Elphin Productions, King’s Head Theatre and Little Angel Theatre bring you Cinderella - a fully immersive pantomime experience, featuring sensational songs, hilarious slapstick comedy, romance, puppetry provided by Little Angel Theatre and plenty of audience participation. Join Cinders as she gets a North London upgrade, celebrating Islington’s rich history! 

Cinderella will be written and directed by the 2023 and 2019 OFFIE Winner and 2023 British Panto Award winner Andrew Pollard (Known for CBeebies’ Robin Hood and his 15-year run as writer/director/dame at Greenwich Theatre). 

In drizzly London, it’s hard to find romance these days - everyone is so busy! Cinderella needs help to leave her life of drudgery and explore a world full of adventures.  A shy Prince needs someone to help bring him out of his shell and find his mojo. Could they help each other find the courage to change their lives? The Fairy Godmother thinks so!  So, join her on this romantic roller-coaster of Christmas adventure! Boo the selfish step-sisters, Peckham and Dalston! Cheer on our North London lovers, Cinderella and the Prince! Boogie on down with Buttons and his daffy duck, Quackers! You’re all invited to the big Disco Ball this Christmas! So wave your hands in the air, like you just don’t care – and have the time of your lives at the King’s Head’s intimate, immersive panto spectacular!
