The Mart Theatre, Skipton - 23rd and 24th December, 2011
11.00am & 2.30pm each day
We are so excited (Oh, yes we are!) about the two-date pop-up panto that’s heading to The Mart Theatre, Skipton. Aladdin And His Magic Lamp is set to get families across the area feeling really festive in the run up to Christmas.
Starring former Eastender Mark Homer (Tony Hills) as Abanazer and a cracking cast, the show promises to be a riot of comedy and wonderful foot-tapping songs and beautiful costumes all in the brilliant atmosphere of the auction mart.
George Critchley for PMA Productions brings the Middle Eastern folk tale to life in a magical way. The show retells the life of a young poor boy Aladdin (Alex Beaumont) who lives with his mum Widow Twankey (Neil Bromley), and brother Wishee Washee in a Chinese City (thought to be Peking) who is recruited to find a Magic Lamp by his mysterious Uncle Abanazer.
Everyone is invited to come and find out what happens when Aladdin is double-crossed and finds himself stuck in the booby-trapped cave of wonders.
Meet the Genie (Jack Lewis-Slatter) who lives in a Lamp, his sidekick The Slave of the Ring (Rebecca Charnley), Sophie Michaels as Princess Yasmin, in this new production for all the family.
Along with a full supporting troupe of dancers from Karen Heritage Dance Academy (Stockton-on-Tees) and all the traditional ingredients of a fun-filled, family pantomime, this is sure to be a festive treat for any age.
Tickets: £7.50 adult, £5.00 child, £20 family ticket (must include one adult) Book online at www.themarttheatre.org.uk
