According to some 500 earlier versions of the story, Cinderella wore a magic ring or magic shoes made of gold, silver or another rare metal. The first suggestion of a glass slipper did not appear until 1697, when the French writer Charles Perrault wrote Cendrillon. Perrault Cinderella... copied previous French versions, which portrayed the fair maiden wearing “pantoufles en vair,” or “slippers of white squirrel fur.” However, by the time Perrault wrote his Proof that a pair of shoes script, vair had disappeared from the French language, so he replaced it with “verre,” meaning glass, and Cinderella has worn glass slippers ever since. can change a girl’s life! In Europe in the 17th century six inch high heels were worn by the upper classes. Two servants, one on either side, were needed to hold up the person wearing the high heels and it Cinderella is one of the oldest known fairy tales in the world. The story we all know and love was written by a wasn’t until the 18th century that women’s shoes were Frenchman, Charles Perrault, more than 300 years ago, but Cinderella is a lot, lot older than that! In fact one of different from men’s. the oldest known versions comes from China around the ninth century. So where does Cinderella actually come from? Well as we all know, she comes from a kingdom far, far away! ...Or does she? Actually Cinderella comes from ...well just about everywhere! One answer may be ancient Greece, over 2,000 years ago. The Greek historian Strabo told of a young servant girl called Rhodopis – or ‘Rosy Cheeks’ – who was fair and beautiful. The other servants hated Rhodopis and made her do extra chores. One day an eagle flew away with her sandal and then dropped it on the head of a king! Messengers were sent out to find the rightful owner of the sandal, and Rhodopis was brought before the king, who promptly married her. In the Italian story, the heroine is called Zezolla and she has two stepmothers. She plots with her governess to kill her first stepmother, the governess then goes on to marry In Hungary the groom drinks a toast Zezolla’s father and brings with her not two but six cruel stepsisters.

In Kashmir, the Indian Cinderella loses her nose ring in the river, which swallows the ring, the fish is then caught and served to the king who finds the ring and begins his quest in finding his princess. Similar stories could also be found centuries ago in lots of other countries including the Philippines, Vietnam and Korea. Wherever she came from Cinderella eventually popped up in Europe, as an opera in Italy and thanks to the Brothers Grimm as a fairytale in Germany. After 2,000 years walking the globe (with just one shoe remember!) Cinderella finally made it into a pantomime in 1904 at London’s Drury Lane Theatre and has now 14 become the most frequently performed panto of them all. 15 Cast Synopsis IN order of appearance of Scenes Fairy Godmother .............Camilla Dallerup Cinderella...................Lucy Pollard Dandini .....................Danny Colligan ACT ONE Prince Charming .............Gary Tushaw Prologue Our Story Begins… Sharon .....................Stephen Richards Scene 1 The Town Square Nicole......................
