When Cinderella finds herself far more intrigued by the smooth-talking narrator than the rather predictable Prince Charming, the story starts to unravel in the most delightful way.Meanwhile, Prince Charming discovers that true chemistry might be less about destiny and more about a powerful wand and a fairy with impeccable timing.With the Fairy Godmother enjoying a little magic of her own, alliances shift, expectations crumble, and happily-ever-after becomes wonderfully complicated.Packed with witty narration, playful innuendo, audience call-backs, and classic panto chaos, A Twisted Cinderella proves that fairy tales don’t always end the way you expect and sometimes, that’s where the real fun begins.🎧 Happily ever after… with benefits.
