Every day is a bad hair day for this Cinderella. The world’s most beloved fairytale comes to life like never before in the hands of nimble-fingered puppetry genius Shona Reppe. Vying for the hand of the handsome prince, our harried heroine and her sinister stepsisters gasp and giggle their way across an intricate table-top stage full of secret hatches and hideaways. But with a little hocus-pocus, Cinderella may just get that magical makeover and her man!

“Shona Reppe is the fairy

godmother of puppet theatre.”
