Starring alongside Paul Michael Glaser (Starsky and Hutch), Shiela Ferguson (The Three Degrees) and returning following his role as Dandini last year, Dale Meeks (Emmerdale) and from “Grease is the word” pop star Anthony Kavanagh.

Aladdin ran at the Sunderland Empire from Friday 5th December 2008 through till Sunday 4th January 2009.

“Steve Walls, as Wishee Washee, is completely under-utilised. This hugely talented performer’s abilities are wasted for the most part, but credit must be given to him for seizing and making the most of every opportunity that he was given. His affinity with the kids in the audience was delightfully evident when four were brought on stage for a sing-song”
Steve Burbridge; UK Theatre.net

“Wallsend's Wishee Washee, Steve Walls, is superb as the panto joker and a clear hit with the kids”
Tegan Chapman; News Guardian

“Steve Walls as lovelorn Wishee Washee struck up a real rapport with the young ones. And there was one woman in the audience clearly willing to give him her number (no, not me)”
Barbara Hodgson; the Journal

“Steve Walls's cheeky Wishee Washee filled the comedy gap with humour ancient and modern”
Viv Hardwick; Northern Echo

“North East-born Steve Walls as Wishee Washee is fantastic with the kids, building up a great rapport”
Katharine Capocci; What’s On North East

“Poor Wishee Washee, the one who cannot find true love or any love for that matter, was very entertaining and held the audience with his terrible jokes. He played the character very well”
Julie Dowson; Newcastle Evening Chronicle

“There's a real chemistry between Widow Twankey (Dale Meeks) and her sons Wishee Washee (Steve Walls) and Aladdin”
Georga Spottiswood; Sunderland Echo

“South Shields's very own Dale Meeks made a brilliant dame as Widow Twanky, striking up a fantastic comedy partnership with on-stage son Wishy Washy (Steve Walls)”
Angela Reed; Shields Gazette
