What makes this production truly special is its fully local approach, showcasing the incredible talent of the local community. The creative team, professional actors, and community cast all hail from Hampshire and Wiltshire, bringing a sense of home and heart to the performance.

“This is not just a show; it’s a celebration of our community and a tribute to the spirit of Eastleigh,”  said Charlotte Hall, the director of the production. “We’re excited to present a production that resonates with our residents, filled with familiar faces and creative talent from the area.”

The Point is thrilled to announce that the Fairy Godmother will be performed by Lucy Mellors, Cinderella by Lauren Somerville, the Prince by Paul Cassaro, and the Rat Sisters by Anna Harriott.

Lauren grew up just a stone’s throw from The Point in Fair Oak. Performing at a venue that’s part of her local community is especially meaningful to her.

"I'm very excited to be playing Cinderella. Such a classic story and hopefully with a fun twist in there. And to be playing it in my home venue is super exciting" Lauren

Paul is based in Fareham. Before attending drama school, Paul sung and danced in theatres in both Southampton and Portsmouth and is delighted to be back performing in Hampshire.
