Show Synopsis
Ja’far is a hardworking, honest politician in a magic kingdom that has fallen on hard times. Corruption is rampant on all levels, crime is up (thanks to the efforts of that thief, Aladdin!) and the kingdom is on the verge of bankruptcy. When the naive princess angers the prince of the Kingdom of Pik-zahr, Ja’far remembers a tale told to him by his deceased wife – that of an all-powerful Djinn, hidden in a common lamp. To save the kingdom from certain destruction and ensure a happy ending for all, Ja’far must do everything he can to get his hands on that lamp, even when the road gets a little… twisted!
Originally produced by StarKid Productions, with music by A.J. Holmes, lyrics by Kaley McMahon, and book by Matt Lang, Nick Lang, and Eric Kahn Gale.
Content Warning: TWISTED contains explicit content, including strong language, sexual references and adult themes. The show is recommended only for mature audiences, 18 years and up.
