Aladdin Overview

Strictly Come Dancing’s Russell Grant will be returning to Milton Keynes Theatre as the magical Genie of the Lamp on Fri 6, Sat 7 & Sat 14 Jan. He will be joined by pop and musical theatre star Gareth Gates, Britain's Got Talent finalist Paul Burling and West End leading lady Nicola Brazil for this treasure filled adventure which promises to be pure panto genie-us!

Coming to MKT fresh from his critically acclaimed performance in Les Miserables in the West End, Gareth Gates catapulted on to our screens back in 2002 in the original Pop Idol. With a succession of number one singles, the 2nd best selling single of the 90s, and an appearance on the hit TV show Dancing on Ice his success hasn't stopped since! Gareth had an ideal start to his theatrical career by accepting the lead role in Joseph And His Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and hasn't looked back since, following with lead roles in two First Family Entertainment pantomimes Cinderella (New Wimbledon Theatre) and Snow White and the Seven Dwarves (New Victoria Theatre, Woking) and the 25th Anniversary tour of Les Miserables. This mammoth 10-month tour played to sell out audiences across the UK before 22 special performances at the Barbican in London, where Gareth wowed audiences with his performance; 'he delivers a revelatory performance with acting pedigree, swiftly socking it to prejudiced critics like me.' (Joseph Pike, What's On Stage)

Joining Gareth as Aladdin's mischievous brother Wishee Washee is the hilarious 2010 finalist of Britain's Got Talent, Paul Burling. In 2010 Paul became a firm favourite with judges and public alike for his side-splitting comedy routines, most memorably his uncanny impersonation of Harry Hill, with Piers Morgan calling him 'the best impressionist we've ever seen on Britain's got Talent.' Last Christmas Paul could be seen on prime time ITV in his own series It's Paul Burling and has since toured the country in the Britain's Got Talent national tour and he's no stranger to pantomime, Aladdin will be Paul's fifteenth consecutive show so expect the laughs to come thick and fast!

Book now for this treasure-filled festive adventure with genies by the lamp-load, side-splitting comedy, chart-topping songs, bags of family fun, audience participation, a boo-able baddie, and just maybe, a real flying carpet! This is a glittering journey into a fun, fairytale world suitable for all the family.

Russell Grant back by popular demand on Fri 6, Sat 7 & Sat 14 Jan.
Camilla Dallerup will perform at all remaining performances except Fri 6, Sat 7 & Sat 14 Jan.

The Lamp Post Blog

Oh hello there! For those not in the know I’m Lampie, I might be made of brass but I’m the REAL star of the pantomime – forget your Gareth Gates’, Paul Burlings, Dames and dancers - without me providing a beautifully compact and bijou home for our sequin-encrusted Strictly Come Dancing Genies we don’t have a show! And I might not be as glitzy and glamorous as some of our cast, but do you know the best thing about being a dusty old lamp? People forget you are even there, so I get to hear all the backstage gossip – I’m your very own paparazzi, a secret scout with a spout if you will, and I’ll be keeping you up to date with all the shenanigans with my weekly Lamp Posts (did you see what I did there?) So let’s see what the cast have been up to today. Click here to read our Blog online
