Ciderella
Cornwood Village Hall, Ivybridge, PL21 9QA
Saturday 12th December 2026 7:30PM
Ciderella is an adult Christmas show with a twist!
A local amateur dramatics theatre company, The Plymuff Players, want to perform the classic Cinderella, but in their haste, one of the team misses out the ‘n’ on the marketing materials and can’t afford to reprint the posters.
Forced to make the best of things, their new hastily devised show follows middle-aged barmaid Ciderella as her stepmother Red Ruth and the local hipsters try to thwart her from attending Barry Beer’s Ball. All this while she navigates the menopause, think glittery HRT patch instead of a glass slipper. Will the team crack under pressure, or will they deliver the performance of their lives?
Part mockumentary, part comedy, Ciderella promises to be a magical night of theatre you’ll never forget, however hard you might try.
Written, directed and performed by award-winning writer Laura Horton, with comedians Edward Tripp, Suzy Bennett and Sam Crawley.
