As a narrator sets the stage for her one-thousand-and-first telling of Aladdin and His
Wonderful Lamp, her disgruntled band of actors, led by the ingenue Alanna, stage a theatrical
coup to tell the story their way.
A wonderful twist on the story of the genie in the lamp, with a female heroine.

We especially need plays for young actors with strong female roles. Send your play, synopsis and character descriptions to 23milessouth@gmail.com with "play submission" in the subject line.
