1 Cinderella Frank Neil , Fullers' Theatres , Fuller-Ward , 1925 single work musical theatre pantomime fantasy

Staged over 16 scenes, the pantomime follows the basic fairytale storyline, with the action set up at the start through an argument between Silverlight, Queen of the Fairies, and Demon Nightshade. Interestingly, Neil departed from pantomime tradition by introducing the harlequinade at the beginning of the production (he did, however, bring the characters back at end of the evening to help close the show).

Two songs known to have been incorporated in the pantomime were 'Girl of my Dreams' (sung by Amy Rochelle) and 'Are You?, Yes I Am' (sung by Willie Lancet).
