Blantyre actress Molly Geddes is stepping into the spotlight this Christmas, taking the starring role in Cinderella at Glasgow’s Citizens Theatre.
We’ve followed Molly’s glowing and growing career for many years and as she takes to the spotlight once again, we’re wishing her the very best.
Running from 28 November until 31 December 2026, the festive production brings a fresh twist to the much-loved fairytale, with music, magic, mischief and a few surprises along the way. Written by Stuart Paterson and directed by Joanna Bowman, it promises a Cinderella with her own ideas about where happiness lies.
It’s another exciting achievement for Molly, whose journey Blantyre Telegraph first celebrated in April 2020 when she secured an unconditional place to study acting at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. Even then, we reported that she had been pursuing her dream since she was just three years old!
Now an RCS graduate, Molly’s credits include television appearances in Dinosaur and The Bombing of Pan Am 103, alongside stage work in Water Colour, Alright Sunshine and Tether.
Molly will appear alongside Claire Dargo as the wicked stepmother and Leandro Daniel as the Prince. The show is recommended for ages six and over, with a running time of approximately two hours, including an interval.
From childhood ambition to a leading Christmas role — what a wonderful achievement. Wishing Molly and the whole cast a fantastic run!
