Live music and performances, shadow puppetry, storytelling, singing, dancing and gifts galore for ALL children at heart who want a family-friendly, magical night out.
Hosted by award-winning, Canterbury-based dance artist Eleesha Drennan, Scissorella’s Surprise Winter Ball will welcome you into the world of brand new shadow theatre musical, Scissorella. Set in a land where fairy tale and true story collide, Scissorella brings together shadow theatre, live silhouette animation, contemporary dance, musical theatre and hand shadow puppetry in an empowering, modern retelling of Cinderella.
The party-meets-performance ‘fun-raising’ event offers local families an exclusive early experience of the next big musical in the making, and will help raise crucial funds to support the development, creation and premiere of Scissorella in time for Christmas 2026. “Simply magical” “Enchanting” “Precisely what the world needs right now” – audience feedback from workshop performances, 2025
