Cinderella
28th January to 2nd February 2025
Epworth Hall
In the heart of the enchanting village of Helston, the Helston Theatre Company presents a whimsical retelling of the classic fairy tale, "Cinderella". This timeless story unfolds with a delightful blend of laughter, magic, and romance.
At the center of our tale is Cinderella, a kind-hearted young woman whose life is turned upside down by the cruel antics of her wicked stepmother and stepsisters. Despite facing adversity, Cinderella finds solace in her unwavering optimism and the enduring love of her late mother, whose spirit guides her through life's trials.
As fate would have it, an invitation arrives from the royal palace, announcing a grand ball hosted by the charming Prince Charming. With dreams of a brighter future dancing in her heart, Cinderella's hopes are reignited, and she dares to believe in the possibility of a happily ever after.
But Cinderella's journey to the ball is not without its challenges. With the help of her loyal animal friends, a mischievous Fairy Godmother, and a sprinkle of fairy dust, Cinderella embarks on a magical transformation, dazzling all who lay eyes upon her.
Meanwhile, Prince Charming, weary of the pomp and protocol of royal life, yearns for genuine connection and true love. Little does he know that his destiny will intersect with that of a humble maiden, whose inner beauty shines brighter than any gem in his kingdom.
With the clock ticking towards midnight and the enchantment wearing thin, Cinderella and Prince Charming must seize the fleeting moments of their encounter, defying the odds and embracing the power of love to conquer all.
