In Trish Cooke's entertaining rewrite of the Cinderella story for Stratford East, the Baron is an undiscovered - or as Buttons puts it, therefore "skint" - artist, and after the death of his wife, marries Woz Mine-Izzmine, the patron who buys his work. But she's only after his title so that her two daughters Sugary and Spicy can have a shot at marrying the Prince. And since in Guadalumpa, the fictional French African Caribbean island where this Cinderella is set, succession to the throne is only made by women - whoever marries the prince would end up succeeding Queen Eugenie (who is desperate to marry off her son so she can surrender the throne that she's had quite enough of occupying)...
