FOR generation­s, Cinderella is one pantomime that everyone loves – and it’s back at the Pavilion Theatre in Glasgow.

It’s the classic rags-to-riches fairytale that enchants all ages.

Joyce Falconer is the Baroness, Clark Stewart is “Daddy” Baron, Alyson Orr is the magical fairy godmother, Chris Scougal is Prince Charming and Chris Taylor is the Trickster Dandini.

THE Overtones will be performing tracks at the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall tonight from their latest, selftitled album.

Since bursting onto the scene in 2010 with their debut, Good Ol’ Fashioned Love, the group has sold over a million records.

Their latest album is the first release as a four-piece following the passing of their bandmate and friend Timmy Matley in April.

Promising a night to remember, the group are joined on stage by a full band. Expect Aretha Franklin’s I Say A Little Prayer and also You Are Everything to Me.

Tickets are priced between £24.50 and £101. Purchase at glasgowcon­certhalls.com.

THIS bold, theatrical adaptation of A Christmas Carol at Tramway Glasgow captures the original heart of Charles Dickens’ beloved tale.

Ebenezer Scrooge is a notoriousl­y bitter old man who is determined not to let Christmas interfere with his miserly routine.

A feared figure throughout the streets of London, he’s unmoved by any pleas for charity.

But one Christmas Eve, Scrooge receives some unexpected supernatur­al visitors who are determined to show him the error of his ways.

The five-star production was a sell out in 2014 and enchanted families. Expect atmospheri­c sets and live music. Book tickets via citz.co.uk.
