Ali Baba & The Cave of Doom
or
The Blaggers Opera
Take one itinerant Woodcutter, a beautiful servant, a sneaky Grand Vizier, a love-sick Sultana, a cut-throat villain and two idiotic robbers, add a few Genies - both good and bad - mix in several exotic locations and hey presto! You have a laughter-filled, knockabout, "must see", family Pantomime. Based on a tale in The Arabian Nights - with the gorier passages edited out - it tells how our Hero overcomes his deepest fears, faces danger, defeats the Forty Thieves... (Well, three of them) ... And gets the Girl!
“Magical… this panto had the lot and sent the audience away with a smile on their lips and a song in their hearts…The jokes and japes are knockabout and entertaining... All the old jokes were there, the cornier the better... This is a must-see panto” - Greenock Telegraph
“The script is witty... Enchanting... Thoroughly entertaining... I heartily recommend it to panto-goers of all ages” - Arbroath Herald
