“If you want to put some sparkle back into your festive season- it’s as easy as bibbity bobbity boo- go and see Cinderella at the Kwasuka Theatre in Durban. Steven Stead has conceived, directed and choreographed this production and it has been designed by Greg King. They have created a show that reminds us of the first magical days of theatre. The drawn red velvet curtains promise an enchanting tale. They don’t disappoint!”

Janet van Eeden, The Witness 05.12.2004

“This family pantomime offers enchantment all round. With astounding sets by Greg King and fantastic costumes and acting, Cinderella catapults the audience into a wonderful, imaginative space.”

Richard Walne, The Daily News, 07.12.2004

“Though the hard-working KickstArt production company labels its production a “postage-stamp pantomime”, the limited budget has been cleverly stretched, well spent to create the illusion of a lavish, glossy romp. Cinderella is a tinselly Christmas cracker that should be a must on every family’s to-do list.”

Billy Suter, The Mercury 06.12.2004

“It retains every bit of the fun, colour, excitement, joy and heart synonymous with the John Moss classics of old…It’s a wonderful show- by far your best ticket in town if you want to see just one stage production this festive season.”

Billy Suter, The Mercury 05.12.2008

“The Perfect Panto: It’s getting hard to find superlatives for KickstArt… Cinderella is a tour de force with all the things panto should have… a visual feast of costumes, spectacular sets and magical moments…”

Margaret von Klemperer, The Witness

“This is full-on lavish traditional panto with style. Great cast, great costumes, excellent lighting (by Tina le Roux), touches of real Disney-style soundtrack and a delightful singing fairy godmother (Shelley MacLean) who makes you want to stand up, clap your hands and shout “I do believe in fairies!”
