Aladdin

Wed 3rd Jan to Sat 13th Jan , Performances Weds to Sat only, 7:30pm, 2:30pm Sat Matinees, £12, Child £7

Written by Stuart Ardern

Directed by Scott Hawley

Step back in time into a magical world of music, song, laughter and adventure in exotic old China. Get ready to embark on a whimsical journey filled with all your favourite characters such as our work shy hero Aladdin, the evil old sorcerer Abanaza, the extravagant Widow Twanky, the beautiful Princess Martini, and not forgetting one or two powerful genies. This family-friendly show will have you laughing, cheering, booing and very glad you booked your tickets so early.

Join Aladdin as he sets off on a thrilling quest to discover the secrets of a mystical lamp. Will he be trapped forever in a dingy old cave, or will he outsmart Abanaza and win the heart of Princess Martini?

Watch out for the evil Abanaza, the dastardly villain with a devious plan to seize the magic lamp for his own nefarious purposes. Will his evil schemes be thwarted by our hero Aladdin, or will he gain the power of the genie, destroy the Emperor and turn China into the second biggest economy in the world?

Keep an eye on Aladdin's mischievous mum, Widow Twanky. Her outlandish regalia and quick wit will keep you in stitches from beginning to end.

Princess Martini, the beautiful and kind-hearted royal, dreams of a life beyond the palace walls. Will she find everlasting true love with our dashing Aladdin, or will she marry him, get bored and have him boiled in oil?

This timeless tale of friendship, love, and adventure is brought to life with a talented cast that will have you tapping your toes and perching on the edge of your seat. A perfect treat for the whole family.

So grab your lamp, put on your glad rags, and get ready for a night of pure entertainment and laughter!

In the Big Blue World…

The debut show from the youth branch of multi award-winning CCADS Theatre is this magical musical adaptation of the beloved 2003 Pixar movie Finding Nemo, with new music by the acclaimed ‘Frozen’ song writing team of Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez.

Marlin, an anxious and over-protective clownfish, lives in the Great Barrier Reef with his kid Nemo, who longs to explore the world beyond their anemone home. But when Nemo is captured and taken to Sydney, Marlin faces his fears and sets off on an epic adventure across the ocean. With the help of lovable characters such as optimistic Dory, laid-back sea turtle Crush, and the supportive Tank Gang, Marlin and Nemo both overcome challenges on their journey to find each other and themselves.

Featuring memorable songs such as “Just Keep Swimming,” “Fish Are Friends Not Food,” and “Go With the Flow” and a beloved feature of DisneyWorld Florida’s Animal Kingdom, Finding Nemo JR. now comes to UK stages for the very first time, bringing a vibrant underwater world to life on stage in a story full of family, friendship, and adventure that is top entertainment for ALL ages!
