Aladdin In The Underground

A new twist to the old tale of Aladdin and the magic lamp was given by producer John Craighead and the cast of "Aladdin in the Underground" at two performances at Nelson College. The college boys, in all manner of costumes, played their parts with verve and it was obvious they enjoyed themselves as much as the two packed houses. The pantomime helped raise about £260 towards the college's Mataki Lodge project.
