Aladdin Pantomime

Aladdin Pantomime

This festive season, The Anvil in Basingstoke is granting your wish for the ultimate family pantomime with a dazzling production of Aladdin, running from Thursday 11 December 2025 to Sunday 4 January 2026.

A Star-Studded Cast
James Mackenzie (Raven, Molly & Mack) makes his Anvil debut as the villainous Abanazar, bringing a deliciously dark flair to the role.

Chris Pizzey (The Basil Brush Show) returns as the lovable Wishee Washee, promising slapstick comedy and belly laughs galore.

Nic Gibney, Britain’s Got Talent semi-finalist, reprises his role as the outrageous Widow Twankey, ready to stir up suds and silliness in Twankey’s laundrette.

The cast also features Kian Zomorodian as Aladdin, Natasha Cayabyab as Jasmine, Jessica Ncube as Genie of the Lamp, and Lotte Bennett as Spirit of the Ring.

Bigger, Bolder, More Magical Expect jaw-dropping staging, glittering costumes, and choreography that sweeps you away on a magic carpet ride. From the depths of the Genie’s cave to the bustling streets of Peking, each scene bursts with colour, music, and wonder.

Family-Friendly Fun
- Relaxed performance: Monday 22 December at 2pm
