The Legendary Central Theatre Pantomime returns!
This Christmas, have a BALL at the best-loved panto of them all, with this year's spellbinding pantomime Cinderella.
TV Soap star and fan-favourite, Zaraah Abrahams, stars as the Wicked Stepmother who will do her upmost to stop Cinderella’s happily-ever-after!
She’ll be joined by CBBC’s So Awkward star Ellie Clayton as the belle-of-the-ball, Cinderella, whilst her Ugly Stepsisters will be played by award-winning comedy duo Luke & Elliott.
Chatham’s favourite dame, Alex Anstey returns as the wand-waving Fairy Godmother, whilst the hilarious Andrew Curphey is back with some brilliant buffoonery as Buttons
This captivating production is once again brought to you by the team behind last year’s smash hit Sleeping Beauty.
Join us for a classic tale of magic and true love, along with breathtaking special effects, toe-tapping live music and plenty of panto fun and laughter from Friday 11 December 2026 until Sunday 3 January 2027.
