Where: Adventure Theatre
7300 MacArthur Blvd., Glen Echo, MD. 20812
Why: This is Aladdin as you’ve never seen it before. Aladdin and his love, the princess Adora, must outsmart an evil Magician who wants to use the genie in Aladdin’s lamp for his nefarious schemes! Will he get away with it? Get ready for love, magic, and mystery in this production for all ages.
We especially loved the beautiful costumes, Middle Eastern props and scene changes. There were tapestries that hung that really made the audience feel as if we were in another country. Actors danced, twirled and swayed throughout scene changes that allowed us to continue to be engaged in the show instead of waiting for the next scene. My son really enjoyed seeing an Aladdin show depicting magic and innocence that he could compare to the Disney performance he knows so well.
Based on Aladdin and the Wonderful Lamp by James Norris and Directed by Roberta Gasbarre.
