Citadel hopes that Cinderella will glow

Oct 30 2009 by Yonnie McInnes

THE timeless tale of Cinderella will be told at the Citadel, Ayr, this panto season.

Stars include, Libby McArthur and Sally Howitt as well as River City's Gina Rossi and Scarlett Mullen as the Ugly Sisters; Matthew McVarish, CBeebies ‘Me Too’ Raymond as Buttons and Elaine McKenzie Ellis, CBeebies ‘Me Too’ Tina the Taxi Driver, as the Fairy Godmother.

Robert C Kelly is returning to South Ayrshire to produce the production.

"We have a long association with Ayr and the Gaiety Theatre having produced many pantomimes and Gaiety Whirls over the last ten years, so we have a strong connection to the audiences of Ayrshire,” said Robert.

“In the temporary absence of the Gaiety Theatre, we will ensure the Fairy Godmother does her stuff and transforms the Citadel into a fully-working theatre with state of the art stage, seating, lighting and sound."

The panto season runs from Thursday, December 3, to Saturday, December 26. Full details at www.citadelpanto. co.uk
