For Christmas 2012, Paul O'Grady has generously granted Ms Lily Savage a rare and unique stage appearance in the spectacular pantomime of Aladdin = A Wish Come True.
Lily Savage plays one of the greatest dames in pantomime and creates a new and updated version of the story of Widow Twankey and her son Aladdin played by Jon Lee (S Club 7, Jersey Boys, Les Miserables).
Joining them in this tale of adventure, mishap, love, comedy and magic carpet rides will be Darren Bennett (Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Crazy For You, Hot Shoe Shuffle) as the dastardly Abanazar and Marissa Dunlop (Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Shout!) as Princess Jasmine.
From the producers of acclaimed musicals Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and Irving Berlin's White Christmas The Musical comes one amazing, fun-filled family show with incredible sets, costumes, scenic wizardry and a full orchestra playing some of the best known musical tunes of our time. All contained in a purpose-built theatre under the canopy of the O2 allowing great views, atmosphere and theatrical magic.
Michael Rose and Chris Moreno, the producers of Aladdin A Wish Come True at the Theatre at the O2, made the decision yesterday to cancel today's 2.00pm matinee performance (12 December). This was because crucial technical work needed to be carried out on the mechanism that enables the magic carpet to fly during the show. (more...)
