Aladdin cut Iago, apu, and raja!
It would be like frozen cutting Sven and Olaf. (Both which appear and are as lovely as you would expect them to be...)
Frozen is way better. It’s not as good as beauty and the beast or lion king, but it was a solid evening of Theatre. Aladdin left me disappointed."
Wow. I had no idea about those cuts. Glad I missed it.

Aladdin did NOT cut Iago, they just turned him human....in fact all versions of Aladdin that exists, I'm talking the Junior version, and the former one in Disneyland, and everything else, Abu and Raja don't exist there either, because while they're great characters, neither are super pertinent to the plot, except for Abu liking shiny things, so sadly the collapse of the cave is Aladdin's fault here, it's just mostly how they went about it that was terrible. It's like Aladdin went deer-in-headlights Christine Daae style, and goes "oohhhh shiinnnnyyy...." and there goes the cave...I'm not saying seeing Aladdin is worth it, I'm merely correcting that Iago is there and still Jafar's sidekick, just in human form.

Posted: 3/27/18 at 8:01pmI'm a big fan of making your own choices of what to see and not asking others what you should see or reading reviews on the show. You already have tickets so go see it.

You could easily cut Olaf out of FROZEN and the story (what there is of it) would be exactly the same. And you can see that same puppet over at THE LION KING.
But there would be a lot less stuff to sell in the lobby.

As someone who went in to Aladdin with diminished expectations, I enjoyed it. I, however, have no desire at this time to see Frozen.
That being said, you already have the tickets plus you’re seeing Angels in America which will be an intense 8 hours so I think you’ll need something more lighthearted in addition to My Fair Lady. You’ll probably appreciate the snowman and reindeer. Plus, it sounds like your partner really wants to see Frozen. So I say go.

Why would a snowman be in Africa?!?
