THE Priory Players will be raising money for a charity which aims to set up and run a specialised physiotherapy centre in Bromley for children and young people with cerebral palsy and serious mobility problems during their production of Cinderella in Eltham, south-east London from Wednesday, January 22.

The amateur theatre company will be raising money for the Freddie Farmer Foundation for the third year running at their annual panto at the Progress Hall on Admiral Seymour Road, Eltham (Jan 22-25).

Cinderella is a classic ‘rags to riches’ fairy story. It tells the tale of young Cinderella; daughter of Baron Stoneybroke.

The Baron has fallen on hard times after his two step daughters have racked up massive shopping bill debts. Meanwhile at home, Cinderella is bullied by her two stepsisters but supported by Buttons, the last servant in the house. Behind the scenes the evil Demon King is trying to get his hands on a magic pendant belonging to the Baron’s family.

Whilst in the forest collecting firewood, Cinderella meets the handsome Prince Charming and they fall in love at first sight. With the assistance of her Fairy Godmother, Cinderella goes to the ball where, rushing away as the magic fails at midnight, she leaves behind a shoe.

Cinderella will be performed at the Progress Hall, Admiral Seymour Road, Eltham, on Wednesday, January 22 (6.30pm); January 23 (7.45pm), January 24 (7.45pm), January 25 (2.15pm and 7.45pm). Tickets £7 (£6 cons) available at the box office on: 07502 450 983.

The Freddie Farmer Foundation hopes to open the new centre, located in Bromley, this year.
