Tickets for the upcoming Christmas pantomime in Folkestone will go on sale from Wednesday 13 May 2026, as Leas Cliff Hall prepares to host a production of Cinderella. Residents looking to secure their seats early can take advantage of a discount, with savings of £10 per ticket available for bookings made before 1 September 2026.
The performance, which runs from 16 December to 31 December 2026, marks the third consecutive year that Second Star Productions has managed the theatre’s festive show. The production team brings back several familiar faces to the stage, including Michael Cummings, who returns as Buttons, and David Rumelle, who will perform as the Ugly Sister, Donna.
West End performer Mike Holoway is set to take on the role of the Baron. The cast will also feature a local connection, with Folkestone residents Brandon Incles and Georgia Graham performing as Bella and the Good Fairy, respectively. Lottie Bunting is cast in the title role of Cinderella, while Lawrence Stubbings will co-direct the production in addition to playing the character Dandini.
The Leas Cliff Hall, operated by the Ambassador Theatre Group in partnership with Folkestone and Hythe District Council, continues its tradition of seasonal entertainment. The venue, which first opened its doors in 1927, remains a central hub for performances on the Kent coast.
