ALADDIN (2011) | ||||
|
|
The Caprians produced another corker this year, with Jeff Waites' Aladdin. We followed the tale of Widow Twankey, her son Aladdin and laundry-hand Wishee Washee in pursuit of the magic lamp that will bring Aladdin riches beyond compare. Evil wizard Abanazar is also after the lamp, and tricks Aladdin into recovering it from the Cave of Crystals. Additionally, the Emperor and his Vizier try to control the Pekin policemen (Hi Lo and Lo Hi) and the Emperor's Daughter Balroubadour falls for the 'commoner' Aladdin.
We also had a special appearance from retired greyhound Jules!
