Everyone’s favourite pantomime returns to Colne, with Cinderella’s carriage stopping at The Muni. Brought to you by PMA Productions Ltd, Cinderella is the story of the put-upon young girl who meets a Prince, much to the annoyance of her horrible, evil stepmother and her two ugly sisters – Juanita and Conchita – played by Hollyoaks’ Darren John Langford and comedy gem and everyone's favourite Dame, Keith De' Winter. TV’s Jodie Hamblet, known for her roles in 'Home Fires', BAFTA-nominated ‘My Mad Fat Diary' and ‘Shameless’, stars as the Fairy Godmother; and George Critchley returns to the Muni for his 20th consecutive year, this time to play the part of Buttons. Will the wicked three prevent the union of the gracious Cinderella and her beau? Or will they marry and live happily ever after? Join us for this spectacular musical comedy pantomime to find out! ....................................................................................................................................
