Aladdin and The Meanie Genie stop by at The Youthy

December 5th 2014

On the 5 December 2014 The Youthy transformed into a magical theatre, where Aladdin and his gang stopped by to help everyone get into the Christmas spirit

Before opening the doors there was a queue of people eager to get in and watch the Youthy Christmas pantomime. For the third year in a row The Youthy managed to fill all of the seats, with 100 people from all of the Youthy groups and ages through the doors.

The audience were involved from the beginning till the end, with the traditional phrases; “He’s behind you” “oh no he’s not!”

By the break time all of the audience were left wondering if Aladdin would enter The Cave of Dreams or if Jasmine would reveal her real identity to Aladdin, while they gobbled on mince pies and Christmas cake.

During the second half of the show, everyone was amazed by the disappearing magic act and was left stunned wondering how one of the ‘wishy washy’ ladies managed to vanish! They also played games and helped throughout the show.

By the end of the show everyone was delighted to find out Aladdin and Jasmine lived happily ever after and could now go on to enjoy Christmas!

Feedback from the audience included:

“The show was very funny and magic throughout” 

“Aladdintastic! My favourite part was all parts of the show”
