We're having a ball at Ballymahon Vocational School on Thursday and Friday, December 1 & 2, and you're invited to the party! Experience the magic and excitement of another family-friendly professional pantomime.

This enchanting story tells the rags to riches tale of a beautiful young girl who is confined to the kitchen, and is picked on by her Ugly Sisters and Wicked Stepmother. With a little help from her Fairy Godmother, a magical pumpkin and a glass slipper, Cinderella hopes to win the heart of the gallant Prince Charming and her chance of a happy ending.

With the enchantment of the Fairy Godmother and the mischief of the Ugly Sisters, we will ‘BibbidiBobbidi-Boo’ our way through Ballymahon Vocational School as we follow Cinderella and her friends on a most exciting and uplifting journey of friendship and goodness at work. This is a feel good story of courage, kindness and the great belief of magic.

Our flamboyant Prince is hosting a ball and the very loving and caring Cinderella would give anything to go, but her wicked ugly sisters have other plans!

Can the beautiful Cinderella escape from her mean spirited sisters and find true love with the helping hand of the Fairy Godmother and her best friend Buttons?
