The show is produced by Five Star Theatre, which was invited to produce the panto for the venue because of the success of its recent musicals, including Annie and Guys and Dolls.

Aladdin tells the story of a young boy with hopes of marrying a princess, and his outrageous mother who dreams of a more glamorous future than running a Chinese laundry.

Throw in a couple of policemen who haven’t got half a brain between them, a lovable laundry boy, Wishee-Washee, and his pet panda, along with some magical genies, and audiences can expect a panto adventure filled with colour and fun.
