Behind The Scenes : Cinderella by Eleanor While, Assistant Director

The company have been working hard to discover the magic in the storytelling of Cinderella. Key moments in the story such as the arrival of the beautiful glass slippers and the creation of the carriage that will take Cinderella to the ball have been explored in the rehearsal room to create the most enchanting way for the rats to help Cinderella on her journey.

The actors were given the opportunity to explore the theatre for one day of rehearsals this week. There is an extra challenge and excitement for them with this set as there is a ladder and a slide pole for them to use to travel around the space.

The company have also been working on the final song for the show which is all about fitting in and things that go together. For example…Daddy and Mum, chewing and gum, beans and toast, Pat and post. Maybe you could have a go at making up your own lyrics by thinking of some of your favourite things that go together?!
