On the 22 and 23 May, Year 6 gave the rest of the school a chance to relax and watch their spectacular theatre production of the story (which was popularised by Disney), Aladdin. 

Year 6 worked incredibly hard in both the rehearsals and in the actual production. The final production certainly was worth the wait despite the (sometimes) fiddly rehearsals.  

Aladdin and his pals (Babkak, Omar and Kassim) are street rats in the world of Agrabah, until Aladdin meets Jafar and his sidekick, Iago. He leads him to the Cave of Wonders where Aladdin gets trapped and finds the magical Genie lamp. He wishes to become a prince so that he can be a suitor of Princess Jasmine, who, urged by her servants (Manal, Isir and Rajah), goes out into the streets of Agrabah where she meets Aladdin. 

Jafar, however, wants Genie’s lamp so that he can take the place of the Sultan. 

So, Aladdin and his pals go into the palace where he is confronted by Jafar, who gets his hands on the lamp. He then wastes no time in revealing Aladdin’s true identity. Jafar then wishes to become a Genie. He is then sucked into his own lamp and becomes trapped forever. 

Jasmine and Aladdin live happily ever after! 

The show was hilarious. It had amazing and catchy musical numbers and certainly lots of unforgettable lines. 

Year 6 had a fabulous time doing it – what a great experience it was!
