YOU can jump on the magic carpet at the Compass Theatre, Ickenham, for the Christmas pantomime, Aladdin.

This year's production, courtesy of Hillingdon Council and DKproDuKtions, includes a special ‘relaxed’ performance on Friday, December 14, at 4pm, especially for those with learning difficulties on the autistic spectrum.

At this performance, the house lights will be left on low, sound levels will be reduced and there will be no flashing or pyrotechnic effects.
