Cinderella Ice Cream Seller
Get your dessert spoons ready for a tale of perseverance, princes, palace balls, glass slippers and, um, ice cream with a brand new musical family show for Christmas!
Over the last four decades, Cinderella’s has become the kingdom’s most beloved ice cream company, with a parlour on every street corner. But how did a humble street seller with not a penny to her name end up as a multimillionaire business woman with her own ice cream empire? In this new musical for families and children, join Talvi and Caldwell, loyal employees of Cinderella’s, as they share her rags to riches tale, and confront their own desires, hopes, and the magic that lies within each scoop of Cinderella's legendary ice cream.
Please note the 11:00 show on 23 December is a relaxed performancee.
Our relaxed performances are suitable for anyone to attend, and are ideal for those who require sensory adjustments to enjoy a show. They are also great for children who may not have experienced live theatre before, or who may find it difficult to sit still all the way through a performance.
