AJ & Curtis Pritchard to star in Wolverhampton Grand Theatre pantomime CINDERELLA

It has been announced today that AJ and Curtis Pritchard will star in Wolverhampton Grand Theatre’s spectacular family pantomime Cinderella, running from 4 December 2021 – 9 January 2022.

The brothers have recently joined the cast of Hollyoaks and are also known for being professional dancers on Strictly Come Dancing and Ireland’s Dancing With The Stars.

Fresh from I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here!, AJ will take on the role of Prince Charming, with Curtis playing Dandini; allowing plenty of opportunity for mischief and identity-swapping as he helps the Prince and Cinderella to find love… something that Curtis knows all too well having won the hearts of the nation in the 2019 series of Love Island.

AJ said: “I am so excited to be appearing in Cinderella at the Wolverhampton Grand Theatre this Christmas. For performers everywhere, it has been devastating that theatres have been closed for so long and with such a limited amount of live performance opportunities. So what better way to celebrate entertainment being back than a trip to the panto where the whole family can get together again? There is such a good feeling to this show and it’s going to be bigger and better than ever before. We’re back doing what we love the most and so excited for friends, family and theatre-goers to experience the magic of panto again."

Curtis added: “I’m delighted to be playing Dandini in Cinderella. I have appeared in pantomime before but this is the first time AJ and I have appeared together so it’s really exciting. The past year has been extremely unusual and therefore it’s great to have something to look forward to and know that the year is going to end on a high. AJ and I have been dusting off our dancing shoes so expect some big dance numbers in the show! We can’t wait to get started.”
