Aladdin lit up the stage at Amharclann Ghaoth Dobhair last night, with two more fantastic nights scheduled for the weekend.
The production was brought to life by talented young local actors, with Ciarán Ó Gallchóir at the helm as director. Ciarán also co-wrote the show alongside Fionnuala Nic Aoidh Bhuí, while Caoimhe Ní Ghallachóir directed the music on the night.
Members of Scoil Rinnce Mhic Eamharcaigh also joined the pantomime, adding to what was a truly memorable show.
Our photographer Tommy Curran was there to capture the glam and glitz on stage at the opening night.
