Short synopsis
- Synopsis
- Characters
Since their adventures in the magic cave where they found the Genie in the magic lamp, life has settled down for Aladdin. His mother, Widow Twanky, is still happy to run the Laundry, and Aladdin is still happy to wander around all day with his beautiful Princess Jasmine. However, for the Genie, who now lives with them, the problem is…. there are no problems! This means he doesn’t have to use his magic anymore, which has resulted in him forgetting how to magic things! So now he is simply a worker in the Laundry.
Of course, Aladdin used to help out in the Laundry, but he has become rather lazy when it comes to doing the chores because he is so besotted with Jasmine that he spends all his time with her, so the Genie is left to do most of the work. Not only that, but the Genie is a bit jealous of Aladdin because he has such a beautiful girlfriend.
The evil Abanazer is still around and wants to marry Princess Jasmine. He finds out that the Genie is jealous and plots a way of making Jasmine agree to his proposal. He convinces the Genie that Aladdin is the problem and must be got rid of.
This the Genie tries but fails and finally confesses to Aladdin what Abanazer is up to. It is now Aladdin’s turn to hatch a plot to get rid of Abanazer. With the help of Widow Twanky, Princess Jasmine and the audience, the plan works and Abanazer is thwarted.
As a result, not only do they all agree that the daily workload should be shared fairly, but something unexpected happens that means the Genie will never be jealous again!!

Frequently asked questions
Can we try before we buy?
Of course! All our plays and pantomimes have a free Preview Script available for download as an A4 pdf file that contains 60-75% of the full script. If you like what you read then you can buy an inexpensive e-script of the entire play (typically less than half the cost of a traditional printed script) which is licensed to you for your personal use. Purchasing a script copying licence allows you to make just enough copies to support rehearsals and performances.
All our musicals are included in our perusal service. Through this, representatives of producing organisations can request a USB Stick of perusal material which comprise the script/libretto and piano/vocal score as PDF files; a Cast (or Studio) Recording as MP3 files and (where available) an MP4 file video of either the premiere production or of a subsequent production.
Some titles have the facility to read the entire script online on our website.
Do we need a Licence To Perform?
The simple answer is, yes.
Under the international laws of copyright, you must be in possession of a valid, unexpired licence before performing any piece of theatre unless the owner or managers of the copyright has waived their rights.
Why do you insist on providing a formal royalties quotation?
When you request a quotation, it is logged in our system, it forms part of an orderly queue and protects your place in that queue should multiple licensing requests occur for the same show.
