We all love a Christmas panto – oh yes we do – so when Visit Cornwall was invited to see one of the first performances of the Miracle Theatre’s, Cinderella, we couldn’t wait for curtains up. Here’s what we thought…
The Fairy Godmother’s glam new frock has always been something of a game changer for our favourite fairy-tale princess, Cinderella, but who knew what a revolution the genius Miracle Theatre could have on her rags to riches tale (well, except for Miracle Theatre’s legion of fans). Writer Bill Scott has turned the story of Cinderella on its head, spun it around and sprinkled a liberal helping of Miracle charm. Read the full review HERE
You shall go to the ball this Christmas, or at least you should, as Miracle Theatre present Falmouth with a Cinderella at once modern and incredibly traditional.
The show mixes good old Victorian style theatrics – rickety stage pulleys and gunpowder fuelled special effects – with a postmodern twist which allows theatregoers to see through the spectacle to the ‘backstage’ behind. Read full review HERE
Miracle Theatre’s new Christmas show is uniquely, well, Miracle. Which other company would stage a traditional panto but as produced by cack-handed 19th century repertory players?
Everything about this show is a joy – from the Victorian staging of Cinderella to the “play within a play” knockabout humour which reaches hysterical levels of farce, but without the ludicrous aspects of that genre; from the engaging use of music by 17th century composer Henry Purcell to the gifted cast.
