BWW Review: CINDERELLA, Barclaycard Arena Birmingham, December 21 2015

Pantomime is old hat in this country with hundreds of productions taking place across the UK each Christmas period. But how can the format be given a fresh spin and shaken up a little? Why not put it in the largest auditorium that a pantomime has ever played! Performing to just under 5000 people each performance, this is exactly what Arenapanto Ltd (in association with NEC Group Arenas) have created with this production of Cinderella. The Barclaycard Arena in Birmingham currently houses a 45m wide by 14m high castle and has a cast of over one hundred, plus a crew of ninety. It may only running for five days in the lead up to Christmas but it is certainly a different panto experience, even for someone who is a seasoned attendee.

Pero entre nominable y nominable y otras labores de supervivencia más mundanas, he cometido la temeridad de lidiar con oficinas de prensa y representantes de artistas de la Gran Bretaña. ¡Cómo desaprovechar la oportunidad viviendo en la tierra de los musicales!
