Manchester Opera House has announced the first stars joining the line-up for Manchester’s family pantomime this festive season, with Coronation Street bad boys Connor McIntyre and Les Dennis swapping the cobbles for their clutch bags as the Ugly Sisters in Cinderella.

It will again be produced by Qdos Entertainment, continuing their partnership with Manchester Opera House following last year’s production of Dick Whittington, which recently won the Manchester Theatre Award for Special Entertainment.

Further casting will be announced later.

Cinderella plays from December 8 to 30.
