ARTS+ENTERTAINMENT FOLKESTONE’S LEAS CLIFF HALL & ALADDIN WILL CAST ITS PANTO SPELL ON YOU THIS CHRISTMAS! Aladdin promises the best in family pantomime entertainment with brilliant musical numbers, lavish sets, show stopping dance routines, fantastic costumes and a witty, sharp and hilarious script. Our spectacular family pantomime, back by public demand, features Paul Ketley as Folkestone’s lovable dame, Widow Twankey. Everyone’s favourite Natalie Hubbard as the Slave of the Ring (Essex style), the talented Stephanie Coates as Princess Jasmine and returning to the company Calum Erskine (Captain Hook in last summer’s Peter Pan) as none other than Aladdin! Panto regular and Red Coat, Josh Boorer will bring the slapstick comedy in bucket loads as Wishee-Washee, while pantomime evil will be perfectly personified in Abanazer played by local legend Rob Hancox. This season’s fantastic pantomime is brought to you by the same creative team behind past pantomime hits Jack & The Beanstalk, Snow White, Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty. Directed by Bob Osborne, produced by Neil Hunnisett and choreographed by Laura-May Gibson, a cast of 32 over 100 will transport you to a mystic land far away for a panto experience like no other. Oh yes they will! Last year’s record production of Sleeping Beauty was seen by over 9,500 people, so make sure you book early to see this action packed magical family pantomime.
