Cinderella — The Rockin’ Panto will take place at Artsdepot in north Finchley, until January 5. A multi-talented cast of actor-musicians present the muchloved fairytale, which is given an energetic extra dimension with classic songs that all generations in the audience will recognise.

It’s time to Shake A Tail Feather head Downtown pantomime, packed with rock, pop and soul, as Artsdepot brings the pantomime party to Finchley.

Also at Artsdepot is All Wrapped Up, from December 10 to 31. Audiences can unwrap a world of imagination in Oily Cart’s mischievous, wintery show, for ages up to five.

This inclusive, multi-sensory show is fully accessible for the very young, including those with additional support needs. artsdepot.co.uk
