It's panto time at Wolverhampton Grand Theatre - with Polesworth singing sensation Niki Evans taking a starring role in the show.
Oh, yes she is!
Niki is performing as the Fairy Godmother in the Grand's festive production of Cinderella. She'll be joined on stage by Neighbours star Stefan Dennis as Dandini and Danielle York as Cinderella, as well as appearances from panto favourites The Krankies and Churchill the dog (oh, yes, yes, yes, yes).
Cinderella will be jam-packed with special effects, stunning costumes and, with a little help from the Amazing Flying Pegasus, she will go to the ball!
Leading the cast, Stefan Dennis is well known for playing the role of Paul Robinson in the Australian soap opera Neighbours. Stefan joined the original cast of Neighbours in 1985 and played Paul until 1992. He was invited to rejoin Neighbours for the 20th anniversary of the show and has remained a regular character ever since. Stefan has also featured in UK television shows including Dream Team, River City, The Bill and Casualty.
Much-loved singer and actress Niki Evans came fourth in the 2007 series of The X Factor and has gone on to perform with John Barrowman at Birmingham's Symphony Hall, Jasper Carrott's Christmas Rock With Laughter at the NEC, and has made countless appearances on TV including LK Today and ITV's This Morning with Phillip Schofield and Fern Britton.
Niki has recently finished a year in the West End as Mrs Johnstone in Willy Russell's Blood Brothers. Niki's new single I Feel Love has been released and her album will follow this winter.
