Presenting: Aladdin by the Left of Centre Theatre Company, 19 Feb - 6 March 2011

Author: Christina - Published 2011-01-01 13:57 - (7258 Reads)

Aladdin

Left of Centre Theatre Company, we are very pleased to announce our next show Aladdin by James Barry and directed by Simone Nichol.

Aladdin is delights the audience with all the traditional theatrical conventions that is unique to pantomime - audience participation, the usual slapstick moments, the very risqué double entendres and the outrageous (cross-dressing) with the Dame.

Christine Long of CTV recommends the production. Aladdin + British Panto = a fun interactive show for kids and their grown-ups. Watch a video clip at:
