ALADDIN

Adapted by Michael McGill

Music and Lyrics by Michael McGill

For Aladdin it’s not easy to find a magic lamp but it’s even harder to get a date! It’s a swirling sandstorm of famous Arabian Tales from Ali Baba to Scheherazade, and even Sinbad the Sailor, as Aladdin journeys to find a magic lamp in a Cave of (not-so-great) Wonders. Along his way Aladdin seeks answers and advice from wise Genies, a powerful Sultan, and his own Mother to find a way to meet the Princess. However, even with the lamp in hand, Aladdin will have to learn that it takes more than a wish to make a good impression. Full of memorable characters, from lost Penguins to talking Palm Trees, this is an adventure worthy of 1,001 laughs.

Preregistration is required!

Cost: $100 per student (scholarship opportunities are available — contact Niccole at niccole@fairfieldacc.com BEFORE paying)

Nothing says summer quite like the sound of a community band drifting across the town square. Starting Monday, June 30, and continuing for six weeks, the Fairfield Community Band will fill Central Park with music, memory, and a touch of small-town magic.

Join us at the gazebo each Monday evening from 8 to 9 PM as local musicians share their time, talent, and love of music with the community. These are your neighbors, your teachers, your retirees—coming together to play everything from patriotic marches to toe-tapping swing tunes and sentimental classics.

Bring your lawn chairs, your kids, your grandma. Let the music take you back—or forward—or just help you breathe a little easier for an hour. Ice cream vendors will be on-site to keep it cool and sweet.

Whether you’re a longtime resident or just passing through, this is the kind of night that reminds you why places like Fairfield still matter. Come early, stay late, and soak in a sliver of Americana.
