Sinderella, a “filthy, laugh-a-minute” reimagining of the classic Cinderella story, will run at Scala in London from December 19 to January 11.
Written and directed by Phil Reid and Simon Gross, the show promises risqué humour, outrageous innuendo, and unapologetic audience participation.

“All the bits that were knowingly laughed at by your Dad are exposed in all their glory in a fairy tale romp.
“This year we’re really looking forward to pushing the boundaries to bring you the most memorable and hilarious night out on the heart of London”
The story follows a less-than-glamorous Cinderella who crosses paths with Prince Donkey Dick in the woods and is invited to his ball.

Other cast members include Nicola Rose as the Fairy Godmother/Ugly Sister, Ronan Evan Johnson as Dandini, and Frankie Duncan in the ensemble.
The show is produced by Scala London and Simon Gross, with choreography by Frankie Duncan.
Jane Cotter, marketing manager for Scala, said: “We are super excited for this opportunity to house London’s number one adult pantomime, which is also perfectly in line with our new vision of the venue—creating music, comedy, theatre, and entertainment for all.
“It’s a show not to miss.”
Sinderella follows last year’s sold-out adult panto Snow White and promises to be equally outrageous, with party anthems like Dancing Queen, Electric Dreams, It’s Raining Men, Like A Virgin, and Never Going To Give You Up.
The show is described as the perfect way to kick off the festive season “with a bang.”
London Theatre called it “A superb, fun night out we’ve all been craving for.”
Mirror Online described it as “A fantastic modern twist on a pantomime classic. a rip-roaring night to remember!”
The Daily Star said: “Loved it! Panto at its best – full of fun frivolity and raunchiness”
West End Extra called it “You need to see it, to believe it…This is pure madness…very funny and highly entertaining”
The Audience Club described it as “Totally degenerate, twisted, camp hilarity from beginning to end.”
The cast also includes Frankie Duncan, who will contribute choreography in addition to their role on stage.
The Entertainment Providers, the team behind last year’s Snow White, return with a brand-new production of Sinderella.
Sinderella is intended for mature audiences only, with content that is not suitable for children.
The show promises an unfiltered night of comedy, music, and festive mischief.
Audiences are encouraged to book early, as last year’s run sold out.
The show will run for a limited time at Scala, located in the heart of London’s West End, and is expected to attract comedy fans and panto enthusiasts alike.
