The stars of the panto are:

Rick Wakeman - Cinder Wakeman

Peter Egan - (A Proper Actor) - Narrator & Prince Charming

Mollie Marriott - The Fairy Godmother

Rachel Wakeman - Evil Stepmother

Dave Brock & Harvey Allen - (aka Triple Cream) - Ugly Sisters

Brian Greenaway - (also from Triple Cream) - Buttons & Dandini

Special thanks to the Triple Cream stars for the use of their recording equipment, they're completely fabulous and saved the day. Find them here. https://triplecream.com/
