//The Oxford University Light Entertainment Society is proud to present Aladdin! \\ \\ In the bustling city of Agrabah-on-Thames resides a young chap called Aladdin; a street rat helping others by stealing what he can, it’s no wonder he always finds himself in trouble. On the other side of the city, Princess Jasmine is pacing the Royal Palace, longing for freedom and adventure. One fateful night, Aladdin and Jasmine’s worlds will collide and sparks will fly. If only the evil Abanazer wasn’t plotting to find the Magic Lamp and become an all-powerful sorcerer. \\ \\ Can Aladdin and Jasmine find their happy ending? Will Abanazer rule over Agrabah-on-Thames? And what’s so special about this Magic Lamp anyway?//
