The Hip Hop Cinderella: A Joyful SEND Christmas Panto at RHACC

On Wednesday 10 December 2025, the RHACC Theatre came alive with The Hip Hop Cinderella, a lively and imaginative Christmas panto performed by our SEND learners. Bursting with music, humour and festive cheer, the production was a brilliant showcase of the creativity and spirit within our RHACC community.

The show was expertly directed by RHACC’s Drama tutor Dean Allen, whose thoughtful direction highlighted the strengths of every performer and created a fun, energetic atmosphere on stage. Each scene was crafted with care, and it was clear how much thought had gone into ensuring everyone played a meaningful part in the story.

Audience members were fully immersed from start to finish – cheering, laughing, and at times even getting up to join in with the dancing on stage! The warm, joyful atmosphere made the performance feel truly special, and the feedback on the day reflected just how much it was enjoyed by all who attended.

The Hip Hop Cinderella was a wonderful celebration of teamwork, creativity and festive fun. A huge congratulations to the cast, director and staff who brought this fantastic production to life.
