Brian, i remember it, It was Aladin & i also knew your mum,I went to Manchester with Jimmy Lowe to get the costumes,All the Lowe brothers were involved with it, Cant remember any names that were in the Panto but i was the skivey running round for anthing that was wanted,Every one who was in the show got a brass Aladins Lamp, Happy days,
