On October 26th, I saw Aladdin the Musical at my local theatre. Ever since then, I've been talking about it nonstop and consuming all the media I can find.
As of today, 12/31/23, I've completed the franchise with The King of Thieves. I've met so many nice folks from this fandom, and I'm so thankful for the experiences this series has brought me in the past 3 months. It's brought me some of my favorite characters, fictional crushes, and even a HUGE dream role!
Thanks so much, Aladdin, for taking me to a whole new world. 💙🧞♂️✨️

literally screaming at everybody “pete and ted can’t ever interact with each other, they’re played by the same actor : (“ DO YOU FORGET WHO WE’RE DEALING WITH HERE??
there are the insane quick changes of which we have: joey richter himself playing what i can only assume to be the entire population of independence (plus an ox) in one song:
and then, of course, the master himself, brosenthal, playing frankly 80% of the cast, but ESPECIALLY in this one scene. ONE SCENE:
“oh but joey left the scene for some of the quick changes in tto, he can’t do that if the spankoffski bros are supposed are supposed to have a conversation” FINE, the other option: just play two characters at once. which starkid has done before.
exhibit one, twisted. these two are not the same:
exhibit two, tgwdlm, a hatchetfield show. this already happened in a hatchefield show:
(also, it is two different characters, do not fight me on this. this scene is too confrontation from jekyll & hyde-coded to be the same character) SPEAKING off confrontation:
joey did already. play two different characters at once. i’m not here to argue the semantics or implications about personhood of saying confrontation and let it go has two different characters each, i’m just saying, acting-wise, there’s two distinctive characters in both songs. like. guys. absolutely joey could just simply play both of them simultaneously. they literally do this all the time. what’s your excuse now

So Broadway's Aladdin contains a Jewish joke that is actually funny and not offensive and I'm a little surprised nobody laughed.
Jafar: You're the Chosen One!
Aladdin: Actually, I think the Chosen People are a few hundred miles west.

Forget the Disney Live Action Remakes. They should just record the Broadway Shows and make them available for purchase or on Disney Plus. Who’s with me?

i love Babkak and Omar's relationship so much. we don't get a ton of vocal interactions between them on stage, but physical interactions? they are always hanging out and they're very affectionate with each other.
this scene could be happening:
a) while Kassim is explaining his newest potential crime scheme
or b) during one of Al and Kassim's arguments
