Cinderella had a terrible life, right? And her ugly sisters were to blame – of course! But have you ever looked at this from the siblings’ point of view?
In 2011, The Uglies Do Edinburgh, a tale of ‘two ordinary girls’ coming to the capital to find their own Prince Charmings, was a smash hit at the Fringe. Here’s a clip of the 2011 show:
In 2014 Annie and Fannie are back in pantomime mode to tell the story of what happened next, and why it’s rubbish living with a stepsister who gets all the breaks.
Two well-upholstered women, six songs, five costume changes and countless double entendres make for a family-friendly show for all ages.
David Kent and Dereck Walker are in character once again to give you an hour of music, melodrama and madness. Take a break from all that serious stuff – you’ll enjoy this much more (oh yes you will…)
Here Come the Uglies! is at Cafe Camino, 1 Little King Street at 1.15pm on 1-9, 11-16 and 18-23 August 2014. Free entry, no tickets required. ‘U’ – universal suitability. A DK Productions show.
