Aladdin

About

Take a magical carpet ride with this year’s family pantomime, Aladdin. A fairytale of true love, magical wishes and a treasure trove of festive fun that’s simply Genie-us. Starring Melinda Messenger as Spirit of the Ring (Channel 4’s Celebrity SAS), Ionica Adriana as Princess Jasmine (BBC’s All Together Now) and Benjamin Armstrong as Aladdin (West End actor and panto debut). The amazing Andrew Pollard and Alim Jadavji, who played Nadine & Doris in Cinderella last year and won Best Sisters at the 22/23 UK Pantomime Awards, are coming back, as is panto supremo and CBeebies favourite Chris Jarvis who will be appearing as Widow Twankey as well as writing and directing the show. Produced by Lighthouse, the creative team who brought you Beauty & the Beast and Cinderella, which was nominated for Best Pantomime in the 2022/23 UK Pantomime Awards. With breathtaking special effects by Production Designer, James Smith and pop hits expertly executed by Musical Supervisor Darren Reeves, Aladdin promises to be another high-flying traditional pantomime with a lamp-load of laughter, stunning scenery and beautiful costumes – it will be all you ever wished for.
