I’m much too old for normal fairy tales. I’m 9. Or maybe I’m
not 9 yet but I will be. By the time you read this I might even be 10.
The Grimmz Fairy Tales have been written for people who are
at least 8 so I don’t mind watching it. They do Snow White, Cinderella, Hansel
and Gretel and Rapunzel in an hour. It’s a good length for a play because
there’s less time to get bored.

The story of Cinderella has been mentioned on this
blog quite a lot. It is a very popular story for a pantomime and there were a
few livestreamed versions, including Covidella and the Masked Ball. Glyndebourne
Festival Opera put their production of La Cenerentola on YouTube. Imogen
reviewed Into the Woods, which includes Cinderella.

La Cenerentola is Glyndebourne’s free Christmas offering on
youtube and as it shares its story with one of the most famous pantomimes (Cinderella),
I’m not sure there’s a better choice.
When I first started listening to
opera (mainly because I couldn’t stuff my fingers far enough into my ears to
block it out), I found the unfamiliar music and the foreign languages
confusing. But once I did finally decide it actually didn’t sound that bad
(especially not when my very talented sisters sang it) and decided to give it a
proper go, it definitely helped to find out the story beforehand.

You’re sposed to shout lots at
pantomimes so I did. I shouted “Social distance you idiots” and “no touching”
and “put your masks on AT ONCE” like I do at school. But it was a bit different
because at school most people listen to me. My teacher called me a covid
moniter and I said if she’s going to give me a job she got to pay me. I didn’t
get payed but I did get to tell lots of people off.
