Aladdin - South Brent panto 2024
Oh yes they are – South Brent Amateur Dramatic Society are putting on another pantomime. Following the success of Tom Thumb in January 2023, by popular demand SBADS is staging another panto from Thursday 25 to Sunday 28 January 2024 at the Village Hall. Aladdin with – spoiler alert – his magic lamp, will bring surprise, drama, music, dancing, comedy and, above all, entertainment for all ages.
A new script written by Somerset based author Alan P Frayn will be directed by Donna Wills, local legend of stage, screen and the Village Shop. Will the evil Abanazar get his scheming hands on a magical lamp? Can the glamorous Widow Twankey juggle the demands of running both a laundry and takeaway with the help of daft Wishee Washee and sensible So-Shy? Will Aladdin make his fortune and win the hand of the beautiful Princess Mandarin or will he be foiled by the potty policemen? Which South Brent stalwart is making only his second panto appearance in 48 years? And how on earth can SBADS make a carpet fly? All will be revealed thanks to a talented cast of both seasoned actors and newcomers to the Village Hall stage.
The last SBADS panto sold out, so if you want to join in the magical fun book your tickets early to avoid disappointment. The panto promises fun for the whole family - oh, yes it does!
There will be three evening performances of Aladdin at 7.30pm on Thursday 25, Friday 26 and Saturday 27 January and two matinees at 2.30pm on Saturday 27 and Sunday 28 January. Tickets are £10 for adults and £7 for children under 16. Tickets will be available online from www.sbads.show/aladdin from November, and from our pop-up village box office in January.
