Putting the ‘oo’ into boo-able baddie this Christmas will be Holby City and Eastenders’ favourite Davood Ghadami, who will play Abanazar in Aladdin at Aylesbury Waterside Theatre from 2 December 2022-2 January 2023.

Ghadami will join the previously announced duo of Andy Collins and La Voix who return to tread the panto boards once more due to popular demand.

Davood is ready to embrace the boos and is looking forward to whipping up a panto storm: “I have heard amazing things about the Waterside’s panto, and have been forewarned that the audiences are likely to give me a good ol’ booing! Well, that’s great because I’m ready to be a baddie in a league of my own! Watch out families of Bucks and beyond, this is going to be one helluva carpet ride – get practising your hisses and I’ll look forward to meeting you this Christmas – MWA HA HA!’Panto genie-us is on its way. Expect family fun by the lamp-load, stunning costumes, sensational song and dance numbers, and a magic carpet ride adventure to remember!”
