Chatting with the Aladdin cast!

19/11/2024

We asked our Aladdin cast three questions: tell us about your role, what will you be doing on Christmas Day, and - well, it is Aladdin! - if you had three wishes, what would you wish for*?

* And no, they can't wish for more wishes!

Our monthly Moviedrome screenings bring you the chance to discover - or rediscover! - a choice cut of cinema that's cult, classic or somewhere in-between. The films are hand-picked by our resident film buff George Cromack, who introduces each screening. 

Our monthly dementia-friendly film screenings are fun and social events for people living with dementia and their friends, family and carers.
