Soho Cinders is a musical with music by George Stiles, lyrics and a book by Anthony Drewe with Elliot Davis as co-author. A modern adaptation of the Cinderella story, it transfers the action to the heart of London's Soho, and replaces the eponymous heroine with Robbie, a young rent boy who gets wrapped up in an illicit affair with an aspiring politician. The plot intertwines elements of the classic fairy tale with contemporary urban political scandal.

First showcased in 2008, the musical enjoyed a sold-out gala concert production in 2011, recorded live,[1] to positive critical acclaim.[2] A full-scale production of Soho Cinders premiered off-West End at the Soho Theatre in 2012.
