THE SEARCH IS ON TO FIND NEWPORT’S REAL-LIFE CINDERELLA     

THE SEARCH IS ON TO FIND NEWPORT’S REAL-LIFE CINDERELLA The Riverfront, Barrats and Jungles have all come together to create a very special competition to find Newport’s own real-life Cinderella. There is a very special pair of shoes lying in Barrats Shoe Shop in Newport City Centre waiting to be found. When these magic shoes are tried on, fit and are bought by the right young lady, they will win a host of prizes and become a princess for a day.

One lucky Newport shopper will be transformed into a real life Cinderella by winning a princess make-over at Jungles (worth £14.95) and a clothes voucher worth £20 to spend at Next to choose their dress to match their new shoes. Once they are all glammed up and dressed like a princes they then win a free family ticket (for up to four people) for the pantomime Cinderella (worth £43.50) and a chance to meet the cast after the show.

The traditional family pantomime Cinderella stars Pobol y Cwm and Emmerdale actor and recent Welsh BAFTA winner Brian Hibbard as an Ugly Sister, former Generation Game host and all round entertainer Isla St Clair as the Fairy Godmother and Barnaby as Buttons. Following the success of last year’s Dick Whittington, this glittering version of Cinderella comes complete with a wonderful set and real snowfalls.

The search to find Cinderella begins at the same time as The Riverfront pantomime opens on Thursday 7 December, and those magical shoes are now lying in wait for a real life princess with the right size feet. For more information about this very special competition you can call any of the collaborating venues, The Riverfront 01633 656679, Barrats 01633 842496 or Jungles 01633 842538.

The Riverfront in association with Hiss and Boo will be presenting Cinderella at The Riverfront, Newport from Thursday 7 December 2006 until Saturday 6 January 2007. Tickets range from £5 to £14.50 with group and family discounts also available and are now on sale from the box office booking number 01633 656757
