Amy Winehouse attended a performance of Cinderella at the Milton Keynes Theatre in England Saturday night, but she did not sit idly by and watch.  As reported by the Daily Mail, Winehouse repeatedly disrupted the performance and rattled the actors by yelling out obscenities and saying things including "F*** Cinders, Prince Charming, marry me." 

Once fired up, Winehouse refused to sit back down and watch the remainder of the performance.  According to the UK Daily Mail, she assalted the front-of-house manager, Richard Pound, by pulling his hair, punching him and kicking him between the legs.  The Thames Valley Police was called with reports that he had been assaulted.  At this time no arrests have been made, but a police investigation is currently underway.

Writes the Daily Mail: "Her outburst was said to have exasperated stars of the show, including Fairy Godmother Anthea Turner, comedian Bobby Davro, playing Buttons, and actor Mickey Rooney, as Baron Hardup."
