Cinderella: Buttons Undone!, Wed 9 Dec

He’s Behind You! gives Cinderella a filthy, gloriously queer festive makeover in this adults-only pantomime at Charing Cross Theatre. In the faded seaside resort of Lob-on-Sea, hotel maid Cindy is looking for a way out, her stepsister Mercedes has other plans, and tennis champion Ivan Yassandvich is on the hunt for a bride. Buttons, Cindy’s gay best mate, is sworn to keep the romance on court, but mistaken identities, gangsters and family chaos have other ideas. Expect original songs, camp costumes, rude jokes and a full theatrical production from the team behind last year’s Beauty and the Beast: A Horny Love Story. Strictly 18+, with swearing, sexual themes and flashing lights. Running time is approximately 2 hours 20 minutes, including interval. This performance is captioned by StageText, with row D backwards recommended for a clear view of the screens.
