I understand Aladdin stopped during the opening number at the matinee today and the show was then cancelled. Tonight's performance was also cancelled. I have tickets for tomorrow's matinee and was wondering if anyone has heard what's going on?

According to their Instagram story it was due to "technical difficulties"

I heard it was after the Act II opener.... but definitely tech related

I was at yesterdays matinee. The show was stopped after “A Whole New World”.  Issues with the flying carpet. There was about 30 minutes left of the show.

Is today's performance on?


A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

My response seems to have disappeared. If it shows up again, apologies for any duplication. The show did indeed go on Sunday afternoon. I went specifically to see David Wright, Jr. (understudy) as Aladdin. It's fun watching talented actors early in their careers as they develop. David was terrific and the show was fun. As for the technical problem, I believe it was with the magic carpet. It seemed rather fixed in place with limited movement, so not fully fixed. Didn't bother me.
