Much-loved funny man Corporal Gary McLintoch, otherwise known as the legendary Gary:Tank Commander is back by popular demand and joined by Still Game comedian and actor Gavin Mitchell, with comedian and singer Leah MacRae, to lead this year’s wish-filled family pantomime, Aladdin.
Gary plays Aladdin, Gavin is Abanazar and Leah is Mrs Twankey. They joined fellow cast member, Brian James Leys as Emperor alongside Rachel Flynn as Sherazade to launch this year’s spectacular show at the SEC yesterday.
Packed with all the traditional pantomime ingredients SEC audiences know and love, Aladdin will feature laugh out loud comedy, incredible 3D effects, beautiful costumes and plenty of boos and hisses in a production packed with flying carpets, a wish-granting genie, an evil sorcerer and a plate or two of Gary’s much-loved cheesy pasta.
