Towngate Theatre's pantomime for the 2026–27 festive season is a new production of Aladdin. Written by Paul Hendy and co-produced by Evolution Productions and Towngate Theatre, it features Sophie Ladds as Abanazar and Ian Hallard as Widow Twankey.
The production promises cheeky comedy, slapstick, showstopping numbers and magical moments. Towngate describes its pantomimes as combining traditional charm with contemporary sparkle, and says this production will feature scenery, colourful costumes, dancers and a live band.
