* [[Abhorrent Admirer]]: [[Crosscast Role|Dame Dolly]] is this to Baron Wasteland
* [[Actor Allusion]]: At one point, Jack stomps off in a huff, saying he'll eventually be in his own place, where he'll sit around in his pants drinking beer. Bear in mind Jack is [[Men Behaving Badly|played by Neil Morrissey, in a panto written by Simon Nye]].
* [[
* [[Aren't You Forgetting Someone?]]: Jack never did rescue Tim...
* [[Audience Participation Song]]: [[Invoked]] by Dame Dolly because, in her own words "[[Can Not Tell a Lie|we have to fill in the next ten minutes]] [[No Fourth Wall|while they change the scenery around]]".
Line 35:
* [[The Fool]]: [[One Word Examples|Jack, just... Jack]]. [[You Put the X In XY|He really puts the "Idiot" in]] [[Idiot Plot]].
** It's implied he's more a [[Cloudcuckoolander]].
* [[Go, Ye Heroes, Go and Die]]: The song in which the villagers sing about how incredibly brave Jack is to climb the beanstalk, while his own lines shift from a declaration that he's going to climb it [[Feet of Clay|to excuses as to why he isn't]].
* [[Gratuitous Iambic Pentameter]]: Goldilocks talks in this.
{{quote|'''Goldilocks:''' I live next door to the Dame and son Jack/She's very hairy and he's [[Subverted Rhyme Every Occasion|surprisingly stupid]].<br />
Line 59:
* [[Androcles' Lion]]: In one scene, Cinders helps out the [[Fairy Godmother|Good Fairy]] (who's in disguise). That apparently is what convinces him to help her.
* [[Bad Impressionists]]: Buttons is one.
* [[Burning with Anger]]: The [[Wicked Stepmother]] experiences this when she realises Cinderella was the one who kissed the prince.
* [[Camp]]: [[One Word Examples|Dandini, just... Dandini]].
* [[Cannot Spit It Out]]: Buttons, [[The Woobie|the poor schmuck]]...
Line 88:
* [[Acting Unnatural]]: Abernazer does this when he tries to mingle with the crowd, even going "[[Unsound Effect|Mingle, mingle, mingle]]".
* [[Actor Allusion]]:
* [[The Cameo]]: [[S Club 7]] show up to sing one of their songs.
** Don't forget Leslie Phillips!
Line 97:
* [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"]]: The Princess' name isn't actually mentioned, a fact that Aladdin [[Lampshades]] a few times.
* [[Going Commando]]: Abernazer, apparently.
** That proves to be [[Groin Attack|his undoing]]...
* [[History Marches On]]: Out of the suitable princes for the princess, two are [[British Royal Family|Prince Charlie]] and [[Tony Blair|Prince Tony]].
* [[I Just Want to Be Normal]]: The Princess.
