Seasoned pros to the smallest of the in-house trained young company make sure we enjoy ourselves as much as they clearly are. Comedy of the knockabout sort is in the safe hands of Richard Emerson and his Mummerset-speaking Idle Jack, while David Miller�s Pandora the Panda helps out too.
Richard Dax makes Widow Twankey great fun, aided by Jean Roberts� extravagant frocks, while Nathan Hamlett�s Emperor of China has a good line in whacking his Vizier on the head. The latter is crawlingly played by Eamonn O�Dwyer, who really comes into his own as the Genie, all snake hips and lithe acrobatics. James Waverley is a good Abanazer.
There is no question of sloppy romance and embarrassing love songs from Emily Gardner and Maria Lawson�s Aladdin and So-Shy - it is more subtle than that. Sheer entertainment with a warm heart that sends you home feeling great - a super Christmas present to the Queen�s audience.
Mary Redman - The Stage
