The Sands Centre are wishing families to come and join in the festive fun this December with the lovable Buttons, the handsome Prince Charming, the wicked Ugly Sisters, the magical Fairy Godmother and of course, the beautiful Cinderella and make it a Christmas to remember.

Watch with amazement as Cinderella’s pumpkin and white mice are transformed into a beautiful coach and horses in this true rags-to-riches story, but will Cinderella remember to leave the ball before midnight?

From the same team behind ‘Beauty and the Beast’ and ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs’, The Sands Centre and Enchanted Entertainment bring the world’s best known and most loved pantomime to life.

Starring Antony Costa from iconic boyband Blue, Amelle Berrabah from chart topping Sugababes, Britain’s Got Talent finalist Danny Posthill, CFM Radio’s Robbie Dee, lSearch for a Star’ winner and Carlisle resident Victoria Little and, back by popular demand, the hilarious Dean Winters.

Anthony Costa is an English singer-songwriter, best known for his work in boy band Blue – who represented the UK at the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest in Düsseldorf with the song ‘I Can’, and have sold 15 million records worldwide. As part of Blue, Costa has worked with the likes of Stevie Wonder, Elton John and Lil’ Kim, with Blue’s debut single reaching Number 4 in the UK charts, and the band going on to tour all across the Globe.

As part of the Sugababes, Amelle enjoyed the success of two number ones and countless top ten hits. She achieved a solo number one single in 2009 when she collaborated with Tinchy Stryder on their single ‘Never Leave You’, which made her the first and only member of the Sugababes to achieve a number-one single outside of the group.

Danny Posthill made the final in the ninth series of Britain's Got Talent. In his audition, he performed impressions of John Bishop, Gary Barlow, David Beckham, and proceeded to make remarks about Michael McIntyre. Amanda Holden could be heard describing the performance as 'brilliant'.

Skilled with a versatile act that caters for all audiences, Danny offers an unbeatable stand up and a range of impressions such as Jimmy Carr, Michael McIntyre or Lee Evans to guarantee a night of laughter.

Packed with brilliant dance routines, well known pop songs, lots of audience participation and plenty of laughter for all the family!
