It's panto time!

Posted by Kathryn Carr on December 11, 2008 4:31 PM | 

Oh no it isn't! (Okay, okay...)

Cinderella opens at Southport Theatre tonight - to the delight of panto fans across the town.

I bunked into rehearals yesterday for a sneak preview of the show, which is gearing up to be a magical mix of mirth and mayhem packed with loud music, laughter and a whole lot of boo-ing.

In between scenes I caught up with the gorgeous Sherrie Hewson, who plays the wicked stepmother in the show for a quick chat. The Loose Women star said that although she wasn't suffering from too many last-minute nerves, her musical number was still a bit of a worry.

"I can't sing!" she wailed. "In my 40 years as an actress I have never been able to sing. And in the show I have to sing AND dance! I sing 'Push the Button' by the Sugababes. It's a sight for sore eyes..."

But if what I saw in rehearsals is anything to go buy, Sherrie's set to steal the show!
