This past June, I saw the Disney's Broadway Musical Show Aladdin. My mom chose the show for the family to see as her birthday gift. Personally, I've never been obsessed or had a Disney-crazed stage in my life, so I was not very ecstatic to see the show. Back then, if I had the choice, I probably wouldn't have picked Aladdin to see on Broadway. Going into the show, I was kind of skeptical of how the show would be and if it would be very childish and silly, meant for an audience with young children.
After I saw the show, my original thoughts were changed. I thought the theater was magically transformed for the show. The costumes were so bold, colorful, and beautiful. The set and structures were breathtaking. The special effects especially the magic carpet was amazing. The orchestra played beautifully. The music was a bit different with some adaptions, but it was still classical and dynamic. The acting and dancing was incredible and well rehersed.
More specifically, Major Attaway who played the Genie stole the show. He is an unbelievable actor filled with so much talent and enthusiasm. Without him, the show would have not been as amazing as it was. He is brilliant in the way that he engages the audience. Everyone gave him a standing ovation after his performances. Personally, I believe that I would have not enjoyed the show as much if he were not in it.
Overall, I would highly recommend this broadway show to see as a family outing. It is a fun and upbeat musical that puts everyone in a good mood.
