Twisted: The Untold Story of a Royal Vizier

Twisted: The Untold Story of a Royal Vizier is the story of Disney's Aladdin, but from the perspective of Ja'far...

Ja'far is a hardworking, honest politician in a magic kingdom that has fallen on hard times. Corruption is rampant on all levels, crime is up (thanks to the efforts of that thief, Aladdin!) and the kingdom is on the verge of bankruptcy. When the naive princess angers the prince of the Kingdom of Pik-zahr, Ja'far remembers a tale told to him by his deceased wife - that of an all-powerful Djinn, hidden in a common lamp. To save the kingdom from certain destruction and ensure a happy ending for all, Ja'far must do everything he can to get his hands on that lamp, even when the road gets a little... twisted!

Originally produced by StarKid Productions (with music by A.J. Holmes, lyrics by Kaley McMahon, and book by Matt Lang, Nick Lang, and Eric Kahn Gale), MCMT is thrilled to be staging the South Australian premiere of this hilarious musical adventure - don't miss out!
