When a streetwise beggar, Aladdin, becomes smitten with the high-spirited Arabian princess, he is forbidden to see her by the Sultan's evil Vizier.

Will the genie's magic help Aladdin win the hand of his princess to live happily-ever-after? With brilliant dancing, lush costumes, and a flying carpet right out of The Arabian Nights, this ingenious ballet production is sure to delight adults and children alike.
