| | |  Freddie Stroma to star as Prince Charming in panto musical production of Cinderella
Actor Freddie Stroma (Cormac McLaggen in the Harry Potter films) will be headlining a panto production of Cinderella at the El Portal Theatre in Los Angeles from November 27 - December 19, 2010, playing Prince Charming. The production took a unique turn in casting Cinderella, in a sort of "American Idol"-like competition, where celebrity judges Kara DioGuardi, Mary Murphy and Michael Johns chose 30 final candidates from 700 initial auditioners. This past Tuesday, the final Cinderella was chosen from the pack by a panel of judges including Freddie, director Bonnie Lythgoe, and actor Neil Patrick Harris. Photos from the finalist announcement - that went to 16-year-old Veronica Dunne from Malibu - can be found in our galleries. 
 Quote:
"Panto is for the whole family and something that truly unites family together in fun and entertainment," says Kris Lythgoe, Executive Producer and CEO of Magic Pictures International. "It's a must see over this holiday season."
Other actors cast in the production include Jerry Mathers ( Leave it to Beaver) as Cinderella's father, Broadway actress Jennifer Leigh Warren as The Fairy Godmother, British comedian Benny Harris as Buttons, and introduces Eddie Driscoll and Mark Edgar Stephens as Evil Step Sisters Cowel & Seecrest.
Tickets for the production can be purchased here.  | |

Oh the irony of Freddie playing prince charming. I so totally saw this coming.  And it's in LA so I might just drop by to see his beautiful face...for the good of the show, of course. Lucky girl for getting to work with him...she just had to be from Malibu.  She is quite pretty though. 
And wow, it does sound American Idol-esque. Bonnie Lythgoe. Edit: Wait, Freddie was a judge too? Hmm, I didn't know he was that talented.

Well I think out of all of the HP actors who could play Prince Charming would have to be Freddie Stroma. He seems to fit the character.

It's sufficient to say that I DIED after reading this. Simon Cowell and Ryan Seacrest, anyone? 
Is that his girlfriend in the last photo? Or another actor? They way they're holding each other, it's a little tough to tell.
EDIT: Oh! I skimmed the article! That girl from Malibu is quite lucky. And she's my age!
OMGOMGOMGOHMYFREAKINGGOSH, Los Angeles. I'm bouncing up and down right now. I'm gonna try to go and see this!  | |

That's so cool! I can definitely see him as a prince.
Hahaha I love how the names of the evil stepsisters are Cowell and Seacrest spelled differently. Very clever.
(And EEEEEEE!!! I love Neil Patrick Harris  )
