Eadie Swanton, 11, played Cinderella. She said: “The whole event has been a fantastic experience. Being in Year 7 it has been a great opportunity to meet students in other year groups who love drama like me.
“I was really chuffed to be picked for the main lead but was worried as I am not usually very good at learning lines, But, luckily, it all fell into place.”
Prince Charming was played by Emily-Paige Rayner, 13. She said: “I want to take drama at GCSE next year so was really keen to get involved with this.
“We all really enjoyed doing it and everyone who watched it said how impressed they were.”
