Pantomime players promise audiences will have a ball at Cinderella in Dronfield
And for their big show this year, members of Dronfield Musical Theatre Group are presenting the most famous and popular pantomime of all time: Cinderella.
As usual it will be a fun-packed show with lots of silliness and the usual ingredients that make Dronfield’s big family show so special.

Says director Andrea Powell: “There’s something for young and old which makes Cinderella such a magical show for a good old-fashioned family outing.
Pantomime is all about entertainment tradition, so as usual our show will have all the things that our audiences have come to expect. But I’m not going to
spoil the surprises!”
Taking the title role is Ellie Ashmore, who this year graduated with a degree in musical theatre, and she will be joined by a host of pantomime regulars. Gavin Ward, more usually seen in choir robes at Dronfield Parish Church plays Ugly Sister Hyacinth and opposite him as Lowercinth is Tommy Jones. Rachel
