Disney's ALADDIN to premiere at Seattle's 5th Ave. Theatre this summer

weird i JUST now posted a pic of Brady and Drew Carey on my FB page, saying they should be writing or revising musicals around them. i was thinking LITTLE ME for Brady, but this IS an inspired fit. i heard PaperMill tried to get him for FORUM and i think he dropped out of that West Coast WIZ right (not the Encores one in NYC which might have fit him). Genie material for sure. Where does LETS MAKE A DEAL shoot? Vegas to fit his act there too? i saw that act on TWO trips to Vegas and he's magical (so to speak) with an audience...so flexible and quick. Dances well too.
Will: They don't give out awards for helping people be gay... unless you count the Tonys. "I guarantee that we'll have tough times. I guarantee that at some point one or both of us will want to get out. But I also guarantee that if I don't ask you to be mine, I'll regret it for the rest of my life..."

Wayne Brady would be amazing in more theatre roles, but he just doesn't have the discipline for them. He dropped out of THE WIZ at La Jolla, missed many performances of his run in CHICAGO, turned down the role of Simba in the OBC of THE LION KING, turned down FORUM at the Papermill.

I liked Abu in the film but TBH he's not that essential a character especially as he doesn't talk. I imagine Rajah will be cut as well. Iago they might keep but not the end of the world if he is cut.

I think the main thing I'm interested in this show is how The Genie is done on stage and key moments from the films like A Whole New World and Prince Ali are done on stage.

Wonder if they'll be new songs or will just be the cut songs along with the films songs.

Too bad it's not planned for Broadway right now though:

"Our goal with this pilot production of Aladdin at The 5th Avenue is to launch this title for inclusion in our innovative professional and regional theatre licensing catalog"
