With Christmas just two days away, festive excitement is at an all-time high here at Cambridge Arts Theatre. To celebrate, here's some "panto by numbers" fun facts about this year's show Cinderella...
In total our talented Cinderella cast will perform 65 times… that’s 8,450 minutes of panto madness!
Our incredible costume team and in-house wardrobe duo have stitched, pinned and perfected a whopping 86 costumes for the entire show.
There’s a total of 21 hardworking people backstage that the audience never get to see… including Technicians, Stage Managers and Follow Spots!
Cambridge pantomime legend Matt Crosby (who is the lovable Buttons this year) has starred in 19 Cambridge Arts Theatre pantomimes – that’s over 1,000 performances on our stage.
Over 60 hardworking volunteers kindly dedicate their time to support our Front of House team during the busy festive period.
Claudia and Tess, the two Wicked Stepsisters, have 7 full costume changes every performance.
89 children auditioned to be in our Young Ensemble… and 20 of them have sung and danced along with our principal cast and ensemble.
Audiences can spot 4 iconic Cambridge locations throughout the show, thanks to Ian Westbrook’s beautiful show cloth designs...
and finally... it’s only 11 months to wait until our next pantomime!
