This February, a classic fairytale receives a sparkling stage revival as Cinderella arrives at the Georgian Theatre for a limited run from February 5 to 15, 2026. Presented by the Kempenfelt Community Players, this much-loved musical promises an evening of enchantment, laughter and heart, making it an ideal winter outing for families and theatre lovers alike.

A Beloved Story, Reimagined

Based on the Rodgers + Hammerstein musical, Cinderella tells the timeless story of a young woman whose kindness and courage help her rise above hardship. While the familiar elements remain — the glass slipper, the royal ball and the Fairy Godmother’s magic — this modern stage adaptation adds wit and warmth, giving the story contemporary relevance while preserving its fairytale charm.

Music That Sparkles

Audiences can expect a score filled with enduring favourites, including “In My Own Little Corner,” “Impossible/It’s Possible” and the romantic “Ten Minutes Ago.” These classic songs bring humour, hope and heart to the stage, creating moments that resonate with audiences long after the final bow. The sweeping melodies and lyrical storytelling make Cinderella a musical that continues to captivate across generations.
