Stepping into the outrageous role of Widow Twankey is… Dan🥁

When asked for a fun fact, Dan’s response was simple: “I’m not that fun… FACT.” Fortunately, what he lacks in fun facts, he more than makes up for in theatre experience.

Theatre has been a part of Dan’s life from a very young age. It’s in his blood and runs throughout his family, making the stage feel like a second home. His passion for performing has been a constant throughout his life, and he loves being part of productions that bring people together through laughter, music and storytelling.

Away from the stage, Dan enjoys spending time with his fiancé, although he admits one of his favourite hobbies is constantly annoying her. There’s every chance this cast profile will annoy her too.

As for playing Widow Twankey, Dan cannot wait to bring the larger-than-life character to the stage. Audiences can expect plenty of laughs, plenty of personality and, if Dan has anything to do with it, some unforgettable costumes. In his own words: just wait until you see them… big, bold and colourful!

Stepping into the role of the wicked Abanazar is… Andy 🥁

A huge fan of film and theatre, Andy was once lucky enough to be selected as one of only 2,000 people to attend the fan premiere of Revenge of the Sith in Leicester Square. After watching all six Star Wars films back-to-back, the evening was topped off with Revenge of the Sith being introduced by George Lucas himself alongside members of the cast.

As a child, Andy always dreamed of becoming an actor, spending years pretending to be Han Solo and Indiana Jones. Since joining a dramatic society at the age of 20, he has appeared in an incredible 78 productions, with Aladdin becoming his fourth show in just 12 months.

Andy admits he nearly always gets cast as the villain, although he claims he cannot think why. Evil characters are his favourite roles to play, especially when there is comedy involved, which makes Abanazar the perfect part for him. Outside of theatre, he loves music, going to gigs and playing guitar.

Taking on the role of Princess Jasmine is… Jody 🥁

Jody has been involved in theatre since she was 9 years old, performing in amateur productions as well as school and university drama societies. Fun fact… She once appeared on a West End stage after being pulled up during a performance by The Reduced Shakespeare Company in Piccadilly Circus to play Ophelia in Hamlet. Her task? To scream on cue in front of a packed theatre!

Although she was asked to read for a role years ago, life had other plans when she found out she was pregnant with her son, Jack. Since then, theatre has taken a back seat, making this her first performance in around 13 years.

Outside of theatre, Jody spends most of her time with family and friends, binge watching drama series, and taking walks with her French Bulldog, Tilly who she describes as a complete menace.

Jody says she feels really flattered to be cast as Jasmine. This will only be her third pantomime, having previously appeared in ensemble roles and as Prince Charming, so stepping into the role of Jasmine is something completely different and she’s very excited to get stuck into it.

Stepping into the role of Aladdin is… Katie! 🥁

Despite playing outgoing and charismatic characters on stage, Katie is actually a total introvert and would quite happily avoid people altogether.

Musical theatre has always been a huge part of her life, although over the last few years it’s taken a bit of a back seat while supporting her daughter as she discovered her own love for performing, which has honestly been the best part of all.

This year, Katie promised herself she’d finally do something just for her… and here she is.

Outside of theatre, she loves reading, going for walks, and wandering around M&S buying far too many snacks.

Katie is really excited to be playing Aladdin because he’s so different from roles she’s played before: funny, sarcastic, and full of personality without being just comic relief. But if she’s honest, she’s most excited about the songs, because that’s where the real passion lies.
