Aladdin and his Wonderful Lamp at Theatre of Marcellus at Emperors Palace

When we think of magic, Aladdin and his Wonderful Lamp is one of the first stories that come to mind.  Aladdin is a classic ‘rags to riches’ tale with a young hero, a beautiful princess, and an evil villain, and is made complete with genies, wishes and magic. The story is one of the best-known and most retold fairy tales of all time. This timeless story has been translated and adapted many times since its first publication in 1704.

Based on an original text by Producer Anjil Naidoo, Aladdin has been reimagined for the stage by an international team of award-winning theatre artists and a cast of 20 of South Africa’s best young and established actors and dancers.
