A clever street urchin called Aladdin falls madly for the Princess Leilah when they meet by chance at the bazaar. Determined to impress the Princess, he embarks on a search for fortune and instead finds a dingy oil lamp. But this is no ordinary l it houses a magical genie who helps Aladdin masquerade as a grand emir to win Leilah's hand. Leilah, however, fell for the street urchin, not the grand emir. Frustrated that Aladdin won't admit who he really is, Leilah gives the lamp to an unscrupulous magician and ends up his prisoner. Now Aladdin must travel across the desert to rescue Leilah by doing the thing that scares him the most. . .being himself.

In this fusion of theater, dance, and puppetry, based on the novel by C.S.
