For one night only, Creating Drama will dazzle and dance its way through Aladdin Jr.
It’s the first time the NDIS provider has done something of this calibre, but director Helen Janke said it wouldn’t be the last.
“This is just a step-up, and we’ll go onwards and upwards,” Ms Janke said.
She told a story of one cast member who was emotional when they made it to the stage.
“I asked her what was wrong, and she goes, this is being a dream,” Ms Janke said.
“It’s something we all take for granted but for a lot of this cast, this is a dream come true.”
The cast members have been going well, Ms Janke said, learning every dance, nailing entrances and exits and perfecting lines.
“They’re basically superstars,” she said.
“It’s a big adjustment but the discipline they’ve shown is incredible.
“It will be the most joyous night out that you will experience all year, and you will leave with a full heart and a smile on your face.”
The performance comes after Creating Drama found a home at Riverlinks Studios earlier in the year.
“Thank you to Riverlinks for the opportunity for our residency,” Ms Janke said.
“We finally had a place to call our own beautiful studio to work and it is just absolutely great.”
Aladdin Jr will hit the Riverlinks Eastbank stage on Saturday, November 16 at 7.30pm.
