Beguelin also wrote the book. The musical includes three songs written for the film by Ashman but not used there and four new songs written by Menken and Beguelin. The story follows the familiar tale of how a poor young man discovers a genie in a lamp and uses his wishes to marry the princess that he loves and to thwart the Sultan’s evil Grand Vizier. Set in the fictional Arabian city of Agrabah, the characters are Middle Eastern.[1] The animated version was celebrated as Disney’s first to feature an ethnic princess. However, the anglicisation of Aladdin and Jasmine drew attention to Disney’s lack of authentic representation of ethnically diverse characters.[2]

In 2012, productions of the musical played at the Tuacahn Amphitheatre in Ivins, Utah from June–October 2012 and The Muny in St. Louis in July 2012.[10][11][12] In 2012, Aladdin was staged in Manila, the Philippines at the Meralco Theater. Directed by Bobby Garcia and Chari Arespacochaga, it starred Tom Rodriguez as Aladdin and featured Aiza Seguerra as Genie.[13] The musical was staged in Spanish in Bogotá, Colombia in 2013.[14]

Aladdin premiered at the 5th Avenue Theatre in Seattle in 2011. After several regional and international productions in 2012, the musical was given a Toronto tryout in 2013. It opened on Broadway at the New Amsterdam Theatre on March 20, 2014 to mostly warm reviews and was nominated for five Tony Awards.

The musical premiered on Broadway on February 26, 2014 in previews and officially opened on March 20, 2014 at the New Amsterdam Theatre, taking the place of Mary Poppins.[18][19][20] The show was nominated for five Tony Awards, winning one for Best Performance by a Featured Actor in a Musical for James Monroe Iglehart. The cast album was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album.[21]

Production history

1.2 Regional and international productions

Early productions

In November 2010, Alan Menken confirmed that a musical theatre adaptation of the movie was in the works with a book written by Chad Beguelin.[3] The musical premiered in Seattle, Washington, at the 5th Avenue Theatre from July 7–31, 2011.[4] Jonathan Freeman, who voiced Jafar in the film, played the role in the stage adaptation.[5] Adam Jacobs and Courtney Reed played Aladdin and Jasmine, despite the characters being Middle Eastern. [6] Additional cast included James Monroe Iglehart as Genie; Clifton Davis as the Sultan; Don Darryl Rivera as Iago; and, playing Omar, Kassim and Babkak, a trio of characters originally conceived by the film’s creators but not used,[7] were Andrew Keenan-Bolger, Brian Gonzales and Brandon O'Neill, respectively. Disney’s colourblind casting policy meant ethnicity was not considered in the casting process which sparked some controversy as the American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee received numerous complaints from actors of Middle Eastern descent. The executive director of a US minor-

Don Gallagher would play Jafar, Peter Howe would as Iago, Irvine Iqbal as the Sultan, Nathan Amzi as Babkak, Stephen Rahman-Hughes as Kassim and Rachid Sabitri as Omar.[28] As previously announced, Trevor Dion Nicholas made his London stage debut as Genie.[29] The special effects are created by Jim Steinmeyer, the master illusionist who helped David Copperfield.[30]

2 PLOT reveals that only one who is worthy, a “diamond in the rough”, may enter. When Jafar asks the identity of this “diamond in the rough”, it is revealed to be Aladdin. Jafar and Iago set out to find him. While entertaining the locals (“Babkak, Omar, Aladdin, Kassim”), Aladdin bumps into Jasmine, who has disguised herself as a commoner to get a sense of life outside the palace. Aladdin has no idea who she is, but he is immediately smitten. After a brief scuffle with the authorities, he takes Jasmine to his hideout, where they each reveal their unhappiness in their own lives (“A Million Miles Away”). Jasmine is discovered by the authorities and taken back to the palace. Aladdin is ordered to be killed, but he is saved by Jafar and Iago, who lead Aladdin to the Cave of Wonders (“Diamond in the Rough”). Grateful for saving his life, Aladdin honors Jafar’s request to enter the cave.

Aladdin had its Australian premier in Sydney at the Capitol Theatre on 11 August 2016 where it will play until 19 February 2017. Following performances in Sydney, Aladdin will transfer to Melbourne in April 2017.[31][32] The Sydney production also performed an autism-friendly adaptation of the show which had the “removal of strobe lighting and pyrotechnics, reduction of any jarring sounds and house lights being dimmed (in- Once inside, Aladdin is instructed to bring the magic stead of off)" in order to provide a more ive envi- lamp to Jafar and touch nothing else.

After being referred to as a “worthless street rat" Aladdin expresses his dreams of showing the world he’s more than just a common urchin (“One Jump Ahead” (Reprise)). He notes his guilt in thievery, having vowed to never steal again after the death of his mother (“Proud of Your Boy”). Meanwhile, in the palace of Agrabah, Princess Jasmine is scolded by her father, the Sultan, for refusing yet another suitor. The Sultan demands that Jasmine must marry a noble prince before her birthday, which is only three days away. Jasmine laments the situation to her handmaidens (“These Palace Walls”). This news also disturbs the Sultan’s Grand Vizier, Jafar, who wishes to usurp the throne himself. He and his assistant, Iago, search for a way to enter the “Cave of Wonders”, a mysterious cavern in the desert said to hold untold power. The voice of the cave

2.2 Act II A vast parade storms through the streets of Agrabah, led by Genie, Babkak, Omar and Kassim. They announce the arrival of “Prince Ali of Ababwa” (“Prince Ali”). Once at the palace, Aladdin, disguised as Prince Ali, expresses his desire to marry Jasmine to the Sultan. Jasmine overhears the conversation and perceives Ali to be just another shallow prince. Jafar, who is suspicious of Ali, tells him the location of Jasmine’s bedroom, not mentioning that it is against Agrabah law for the Princess to have a suitor in her quarters unsupervised. Aladdin courts Jasmine with a ride on his magic carpet provided to him by Genie (“A Whole New World”). Once they return, Jasmine recognizes Aladdin as the young man whom she met in the marketplace. Aladdin lies and says that he really is a

3 prince, he just sometimes likes to dress as a commoner to escape the pressures of palace living, much like Jasmine did that day. Seeing he isn't shallow and self-absorbed like the others, Jasmine kisses Aladdin good night. After she leaves, Jafar has Aladdin arrested for entering the Princess’s room unsupervised. Upon hearing the news, Babkak, Omar and Kassim storm the palace to rescue their friend (“High Adventure”). They are captured and thrown into the dungeon as well, but with a little help from Genie, Aladdin uses his second wish to free them (“Somebody’s Got Your Back”). The Sultan greets Aladdin in the hall and gives him his blessing to marry Jasmine, meaning that Aladdin himself will inherit the throne as the new Sultan one day. Fearful of this great responsibility, he tells Genie he’s going to save his third wish for a day he may need it rather than use it to free Genie like he promised. Distraught, Genie returns to his lamp and refuses to speak to Aladdin. Aladdin laments (“Proud of Your Boy” (Reprise II)). Meanwhile, Jafar and Iago manage to steal the lamp that Aladdin carelessly discarded.

• Rajah the tiger is replaced by three handmaidens who serve Jasmine and give her advice. • Iago is not a parrot, but is played by a real man as seen on stage. He is also arrested after Jafar’s defeat instead of being dragged inside a lamp by his master when Jafar wishes to become a genie. • Jafar’s henchman, Gazeem, does not make an appearance in the show. • Aladdin is given three partners named Babkak, Omar, and Kassim. He is also given a scene where he re his mother. • The Genie makes fewer references to popular culture and instead is given a Cab Calloway-esque persona. • Aladdin’s second wish is used to free him and his friends from capture, not to stop him from drowning as it is in the movie.

• As the Sultan announces to the public that Jasmine is to wed Prince Ali (“Prince Ali” (Sultan Reprise)), Jafar appears and reveals Ali to be merely a common street rat named Aladdin whom the former then threatens to send • to “the end of the road” if no one changes the latter’s personality to meet his standards. (“Prince Ali” (Jafar Reprise)). Genie then enters with Jasmine in chains, saying that Jafar is now his master and that his first wish was to make Jasmine his prisoner. Jafar uses his second wish 4 to crown himself Sultan, which Genie reluctantly grants. ing what Genie told him earlier about the limitations to his powers, Aladdin tricks Jafar into wishing for himself to become a genie so that his power will be 4.1 unmatched. Genie grants Jafar’s wish, and Jafar is sucked into a lamp of his own, bound to it for eternity.

Jafar’s first and second wishes are to keep Jasmine as prisoner and to be Sultan, instead of becoming Sultan or the most powerful sorcerer in the world, respectively. Jafar’s banishment of Aladdin to a frozen wasteland, followed by the carpet’s rescue of Aladdin, is cut from the show.
