| Sinderella (Theatre) | comment |
In 1995, British comedian Jim Davidson produced and starred in Sinderella, an adults-only Pantomime version of the fairy tale "Cinderella". One of the performances was recorded for a video entitled Sinderella Live.In Sinderella, Jim Davidson plays the part of Buttons, manservant to Baron Hard-on (a phallic play on the Hardup surname normally used in the pantomime; played by Charlie Drake) and best friend of the Baron's daughter Cinderella (Dianne Lee, half of folk/pop duo Peters and Lee), who also has to put up with abuse from Cinderella's stepsisters, Camilla (Roger Kitter) and Madonna (Dave Lee), but later receives guidance from the Fairy Godmother (Mia Carla). Meanwhile, the well-hung Prince Charming (Jess Conrad), with the help of his assistant Dandini (David Kristian), organises a ball to try and find a potential wife. | |

As Prince Charming (in disguise as Dandini) starts singing "This Pullover" (incidentally a song recorded by Jess Conrad in the early 1960s), Buttons walks on and the song stops suddenly. | |

Break the Cutie | |
| Sinderella (Theatre) / int_4b316d47 | comment |
Break the Cutie: When Camilla hands Cinderella her ball ticket seemingly as a gesture of goodwill, she backs down on her goodwill and orders Cinderella to tear the ticket up. Madonna takes the ticket from Cinderella and tears it up, leaving a despondent Cinderella in tears. | |

Gag Penis: Prince Charming's "bulge" (see also Bigger Is Better in Bed) The stock pantomime horse has a massive one. Baron Hard-on also gives Cinderella the abovementioned vibrator which, when rubbed, summons the Genie o' the Prick note The Genie o' the Prick - complete with changing intonations to match, later revealled as Cinderella's Fairy Godmother. The "pantomime sausage" in the pie, which belonged to a naked man hiding under the pie. When Dandini takes a long sock off of Madonna's leg, the top of the sock is attached to a "full set" (if you will) of a penis and testicles. | |

Precision F-Strike: Buttons, the Ugly Stepsisters and (especially) Baron Hard-on took full advantage of the adults-only setting of this show. Even Cinderella lets one out at her stepsisters toward the end of the show. Exaggerated when Camilla moons the audience with the words FUCK OFF written on her naked bottom during a confrontation with Buttons. | |
