YOU SHALL GO TO THE BALL

A Cinderella story at Blenheim Palace

This winter, the state-rooms at Blenheim Palace will be transformed to tell the tale of Cinderella. The wicked stepmother’s drawing-room is set for afternoon tea, the ugly sisters’ room is a garish jumble of clothes and shoes, while the fairy godmother’s boudoir sparkles with crystals. When ‘midnight’ strikes and the historic clocks chime, you can write a wish and hang it upon the giant tree that stands in the candlelit chapel. cg www.blenheimpalace.com
