Katie Price and Kerry Katona are heading to panto land this Christmas to play the Wicked Step Sisters in a production of Cinderella.
First look pictures of the pair dressed up as the iconic characters showed Katie sporting a fluffy pink and black tiger print robe with a yellow feather lining, as well as a yellow and pink spotted dress.
Meanwhile in true panto fashion, Kerry’s ensemble mirrored Katie’s – but instead her robe was green and black and her dress purple and green.
The pantomime, which takes place in December at Northwich Memorial Court, Cheshire, will mark the first time the friends have worked together in 20 years.
Katie, 46, and Kerry, 44, made a joint appearance in entertainment in 2004 when they both went into the I’m A Celeb and became close friends – however they had a bitter, and public, fall out in 2007.

Kerry and Katie formed a tight bond and even asked each other to be a bridesmaid during two of their combined six weddings, after growing close on I’m A Celeb.
However, their friendship fell apart in 2007, after Katie called Kerry a ‘druggie’ and the pair embarked on a bitter and public war of words.

During their falling out, both women suffered plenty of drama and heartbreaks before finally managing to bury the hatchet, partly thanks to the bond between their children.
Things have turned a corner in recent years and their friendship got back on track, even ringing in the New Year together.
Then earlier this year, Kerry helped a bankrupt Katie bag the role in the upcoming Cinderella pantomime.
Cinderella will run from December 8 to December 31, with tickets available to buy now at brioentertainment.org.
