Update: Amy Winehouse Charged for Assault at Panto Cinderella Performance at Milton Keynes Theatre

As previously reported, Amy Winehouse attended a performance of Cinderella at the Milton Keynes Theatre in England last Saturday night, but she did not sit idly by and watch.  As reported by the Daily Mail, Winehouse repeatedly disrupted the performance and rattled the actors by yelling out obscenities and saying things including "F*** Cinders, Prince Charming, marry me." 

Once fired up, Winehouse refused to sit back down and watch the remainder of the performance.  According to the UK Daily Mail, she assalted the front-of-house manager, Richard Pound, by pulling his hair, punching him and kicking him between the legs.  The Thames Valley Police was called with reports that he had been assaulted.  

Today, Winehouse was charged and arrested at a London police station with a public order offense and common assault. She has been released on bail and is due back in court on January 20.

Writes the Daily Mail: "Her outburst was said to have exasperated stars of the show, including Fairy Godmother Anthea Turner, comedian Bobby Davro, playing Buttons, and actor Mickey Rooney, as Baron Hardup."
