@White Pelt Cat that's kinda rude I mean casts are different and is it fair to judge the cast entirely because " iT iSnT lIkE hAmILt0n " I mean maybe they are goofy we haven't seen it
This is one of the best "Behind the Scenes" videos around. Terrific job of explaining some of the many aspects that go into delivering 8 shows a week on Broadway.
I got that during my senior show of anything goes. I even did a bit of a pre show workout like Adam did here. On the show's opening night, I hit the gym beforehand
thewinterizzy ayyyy I’ve lived in Seattle my whole life and I’ve never gone up the space needle also I recommend you go see Kinky Boots because I saw it and it was AMAZING
I saw Aladdin live, and it was one of the most spectacular things ever! It wasn’t on broadway, but it was so so so so amazing! For those of whom haven’t seen it, it’s truly amazing
This helps people realise just how much work and how many people are involved in bringing a show to life.. A night at the theatre is a very expensive night out ...you go online ..choose your seats and pay for your tickets.... This short video made me feel that the money is more than worth it .......👏👏
I saw the show when my high school band took our trip to New York. It was amazing, I loved every second. It was so magical and you could tell how much the actors and actresses loved doing it.
I saw Aladdin @ Broadway in New York. It is amazing. Love the cast, costumers, music, acting etc. Just simply great and you can tell that they put in a lot of effort.
I did Aladdin Jr in 2020 before Covid. Probably on of the best shows I've done. I was Isir and I was only 8. I made alot of memories with my friend and I'm so happy I did Aladdin. My show now is frozen Jr. And I'm Anna! I'm so excited for November!
I saw Aladdin in San Francisco today and it totally exceeded my expectations! It was amazing, the costumes, lights, special effects, the songs, everything! It was amazing, i recommend seeing it if you get the chance! You won’t be disappointed!
I saw Aladdin on Broadway in Chicago and it was so magical! I loved watching this and seeing all the effort that it takes to deliver a great show. Thank you for showing us this! It's so inspiring!
I saw this when it first came out in 2014. I was in the USA and the one show I desperately wanted to see was Aladdin. It was amazing and I took my dad to see it who just so happened to be in NY when I was there. Now I am back home in Aus and cannot wait for the show in September. I will see the Australian production almost exactly two years after I saw this one and let me just say they have a hart act to follow! Steve at the stage door on broadway was awesome such a lovely guy xD
I saw Aladdin in Chicago a few days ago and Jacob Dickey was playing Aladdin instead of Adam Jacobs because he is on medical leave and it was absolutely the best show that I have ever seen!!! The whole cast did an amazing job with the production and making the animated movie come to life! I totally recommend seeing it if you can... you will not be disappointed!!!
i just saw aladdin on broadway a few days ago, it was my first musical ever and i absolutely loved it! i was sitting in a way where i could see the stage perfectly fine and was incredibly close to everyone on stage, but i also really loved to be able to see the crew so hard at work just behind / next to the stage. a wonderful experience! aladdin is played by a different person now and he did amazingly!
And of course, no interview and barely a look in the pit for the musicians who really deliver half the show. Sad to see the direction MT is going no appreciation for the fantastic job musicians do every night. Cutting pit sizes to save a quick buck is ruining shows.
It’s so sad, I was talking to my violin teacher who toured with Phantom of the Opera for 8 years and he said that over time, many of his friends got replaced by a synthesizer. As a put musician myself it can be so frustrating and a little sad to get zero recognition. However I still love being in the shows of course.
Nowadays music for these kind of shows come from the box rather than real musicians. And yes, they mentioned the band. Probably because the band is the only few instruments which still play live.
Maura_The_Rose Almost every time I go to a show, my hands get sweaty before the lights go down. Then when the curtain rises, my nervousness goes away for a while. You must be brave and proud to go through that
I saw it when I went to new york and it was AMAZING, I'd love to see it again, but it is expensive and I live on the other side of the country, keep up the wonderful work
Aladdin was my first Broadway show and I was genie and I had to start the show 3 times in 4th grade, I was sooo nervous all the people backstage kept reassuring me that I’ll do great, it really was scary, but it started the love for theatre I have now which I am most thankful for
I live in philippines and i am in the other side of the world! As you can see on my vids im copying some musical theatres cuz im really obsessednwith it and cant wait to go there!
Every part of me wishes I could have gone when the show first hit the stage. I was in actually in New York with my family at the time but we didn't even learn of the show until just over 24 hours before we had to go home. I will always have the soundtrack and the little bits and pieces they have off of UA-cam but its just not the same as actually experiencing it.
nightOWL I’m sorry but he isn’t going to be in the live-action Aladdin movie, the actor that’s going to be Aladdin in the live-action remake is Mena Massoud
I watched this, this year and it was amazing the fact I was in the front row I couldn’t stop smiling through the whole thing. Best experience ever (watched in Londen)
Thank you for at least showing a shot of the pit orchestra. Even if it was just a split moment, I feel the musician never get the credit they deserve in musical theater. Seeing Phantom of the Opera in 8th grade a gazillion years ago, we sat nose bleeds balcony but you could see the pit orchestra perfectly. I had no idea the music was live and there were musicians performing below stage and it made me want to do that. I have the pit orchestra to thank for my immense love and interest in music theater and still perform shows around Los Angeles to this day. I love everything going on stage as well, and extremely impressed with back stage, tech team and house operations….but the pit orchestra to me was the main draw.
I’ve seen this musical before with the exact cast-most amazing production I’ve ever seen! I am a student looking into going to a musical arts school and my dream roll has always been Genie! When I heard my old school was doing the Jr musical I volunteered for makeup and the tech that goes into this!
I saw this live with my HS Theater Department after we performed Aladdin Jr just a month or two ago! All I gotta ask is how the hell does the carpet work? Please just tell me. I won't tell anyone, I promise. (Also in case anyone who sees this is wondering, I played Omar when we put on the show!)
loved this broadway show, first one i saw, Major attaway and Telly Leung replacing the genie/aladdin worried me but seriously major attaway and telly do just as good, if not better, such a good show to see
When someone says its too expensive to watch broadway, show them this video.
The amount of people and effort put in to it is amazing
Aladdin crew and cast: serious, chill, professional.
Hamilton cast and crew:" WHERE IN THE PLAY, AND GROFFSAUACE IS HERE!"
RK900 Conan honestly, yes
White Pelt Cat yes yes so true
@White Pelt Cat that's kinda rude I mean casts are different and is it fair to judge the cast entirely because " iT iSnT lIkE hAmILt0n " I mean maybe they are goofy we haven't seen it
Aladdin crew : *fist bump* good luck
Hamilton crew : GOOD LUCK WITH THE LOTTO
Lool
This is one of the best "Behind the Scenes" videos around. Terrific job of explaining some of the many aspects that go into delivering 8 shows a week on Broadway.
N c
its not even the real characters
Dulce true
I'm so happy that Adam, Courtney and James extended their contracts for another year because I still want to see the show.
only till the end of 2016?? or 2017?
I think until January of 2017.
Ahh men :/ i'm going to find a way to see it!
HALLELUJAH
Ahhh no wonder they're still here! I'm so happy for them but ahhhh I'll never get to see the show 😭
I got pre-show butterflies and I’m not even in it😂
same lmfao
a.j petersen same here!
I got that during my senior show of anything goes. I even did a bit of a pre show workout like Adam did here. On the show's opening night, I hit the gym beforehand
My heart started beating so fast when the Overture started playing
I know it’s horrible I actually dance with some amazing people for dances like The Nutcracker. But the pre show butterflies always get me.
I saw this in Seattle this week and it was SO GOOD. One of the best musicals I’ve ever seen.
thewinterizzy ayyyy I’ve lived in Seattle my whole life and I’ve never gone up the space needle also I recommend you go see Kinky Boots because I saw it and it was AMAZING
We did an interview with Jonathan Weir who plays Jafar! He was so awesome and a talented actor!
I saw it in Seattle too, and was lucky enough to see James Monroe Iglehart as the Genie. One of the best musicals I've ever seen live.
ME TOO I JUST SAW IT 2 hours ago
who's excited for the live action version?
I saw Aladdin live, and it was one of the most spectacular things ever! It wasn’t on broadway, but it was so so so so amazing! For those of whom haven’t seen it, it’s truly amazing
This helps people realise just how much work and how many people are involved in bringing a show to life..

I saw the show when my high school band took our trip to New York. It was amazing, I loved every second. It was so magical and you could tell how much the actors and actresses loved doing it.
I want to ride that Aladdin...no, I mean the carpet, the magic carpet.
I’m my Aladdin musical I was the carpet (I ATE UP THE AUDITION THOUGH)
I saw Aladdin @ Broadway in New York. It is amazing. Love the cast, costumers, music, acting etc. Just simply great and you can tell that they put in a lot of effort.

James Monroe Iglehart is GOALS!
Michael Anthony Butler Been a fan of him since Memphis
I saw Aladdin on Broadway in Chicago and it was so magical! I loved watching this and seeing all the effort that it takes to deliver a great show. Thank you for showing us this! It's so inspiring!
I could watch literally any Behind the Scenes video and be fascinated. I think I missed my calling.
I saw this when it first came out in 2014. I was in the USA and the one show I desperately wanted to see was Aladdin. It was amazing and I took my dad to see it who just so happened to be in NY when I was there. Now I am back home in Aus and cannot wait for the show in September.

Steve at the stage door on broadway was awesome such a lovely guy xD
I can’t believe it’s been a year now since I saw the show on tour. Major Attaway was the Genie when I went!
I want to ride Aladdins magic carpet omg 😍
I just want a cape like the one genie wears in Arabian Nights
As a lifelong theater geek, this warms my soul.
I saw Aladdin in Chicago a few days ago and Jacob Dickey was playing Aladdin instead of Adam Jacobs because he is on medical leave and it was absolutely the best show that I have ever seen!!! The whole cast did an amazing job with the production and making the animated movie come to life! I totally recommend seeing it if you can... you will not be disappointed!!!

I went to see this show and it is amazing. The sets are stunning as well as the costumes. The actors are incredible. Best show I’ve ever seen.
Same here. It's my favorite musical of all time
And of course, no interview and barely a look in the pit for the musicians who really deliver half the show. Sad to see the direction MT is going no appreciation for the fantastic job musicians do every night. Cutting pit sizes to save a quick buck is ruining shows.

Thank you
It’s great to see the way Come From Away treats their musicians
Hamilton made a video shows one of the musicians. The drummer!
I am not a big Disney fan myself, but man this was the best live show I have ever attended!
Gee I’m not a big fan of Disney either. But I do whatever they put out my heart desires
LoL I am watching this... but know someone who is in Aladdin so I have been backstage!! 😂😂😀😀😀
I’m doing this show with my school. It’s really fun watching shows come together.
I'm seeing it for my 15th b'day in melbourne and I'm so excited I can't wait!
Ellie Dolan so how was it
I love the actors so cool
Ugh I wanna be on broadway so bad !!!! Love this stuff

Samantha Jane That’s cool
hello iatse family! hope your dad is doing okay these days. we all cant wait to get back at it!
My favorite part about a show is when the overture starts you get butterflies when you hear the audience clap from the other side of the curtain!
Maura_The_Rose Almost every time I go to a show, my hands get sweaty before the lights go down. Then when the curtain rises, my nervousness goes away for a while. You must be brave and proud to go through that
Why did I get really nervous when they were going to the stage 😅 I felt like I was in it 🤣
I saw it when I went to new york and it was AMAZING, I'd love to see it again, but it is expensive and I live on the other side of the country, keep up the wonderful work
I saw this in NYC yesterday and it was absolutely spectacular!!!
I got to see this for my birthday and it was the BEST!
I was JUST THERE yesterday and it was hilarious 😂😂 That exact theater to and it was the best Broadway show EVER!!!!
I loved seeing this in 2016!
I’d like to acknowledge that Aladdin's actor was just watching ninja warrior in his dressing room and I love it
I would love to see more about Adam in Aladdin (like a tour blog) ❤️❤️
I did Aladdin a few years ago,This gave me so many nerves and flash backs to freaking out before being on stage.
Aladdin was my first Broadway show and I was genie and I had to start the show 3 times in 4th grade, I was sooo nervous all the people backstage kept reassuring me that I’ll do great, it really was scary, but it started the love for theatre I have now which I am most thankful for
Loved it, thanks so much for sharing. So cool to see everything behind the curtain.
Even on Broadway, the Disney Point still comes to life. Oh, how I miss working for Disney.
Please make more of these! I love them!
I saw this today and it was amazing
I live in philippines and i am in the other side of the world! As you can see on my vids im copying some musical theatres cuz im really obsessednwith it and cant wait to go there!
That moment when your scoping out the video trying to find you in the crowd
Me XD
I am so happy to aleden it.was
I like how they interviewed people that aren't the cast as well! It's nice to see the point of view from everyone who puts an effort in to this!
Good outfit good song good voice good video good acting good actors and actresses and filming and everyone else
Every part of me wishes I could have gone when the show first hit the stage. I was in actually in New York with my family at the time but we didn't even learn of the show until just over 24 hours before we had to go home. I will always have the soundtrack and the little bits and pieces they have off of UA-cam but its just not the same as actually experiencing it.
I got watch a performance of this show when it came to Columbus and it was absolutely amazing!🧞♂️🧞♂️🧞♂️🧞♂️🧞♂️🧞♂️🧞♂️
I saw this in London with my friends in yr9 and its AWESOME!! I love the genie
I just found out that for my 8th grade class trip we are coming to see that show so we are really excited
Lindsay Hammer How was it?
This was the first musical I have ever been to and it is my favourite!
I really wanna go watch it again!
To be fair, it's kinda hard not to be your favourite musical if it's the only one you have ever seen.
Died 93 right...
I honest want this guy to be the actor of the live action aladin. And that Genie is so Awesome💙
nightOWL I’m sorry but he isn’t going to be in the live-action Aladdin movie, the actor that’s going to be Aladdin in the live-action remake is Mena Massoud
@@brianorozco1074 i know that.
Omg, I saw this show with the OBC, so amazing!!!
Now(2019) there is a new aladin film
I was going to see this show as a trip but it got postponed because of the coronavirus :(
:'( that's a shame, hopefully you can see it when everything has calmed down. I saw the show in the UK, it was sooooo good

You are all amazing!
Aladdin got cancelled at the theater in my city because of the corona virus so now I don’t get to see it
