[quote="Chris"]Managed to post Genie, Jafar and Iago last night.  Like you said, getting good pictures for some is a nightmare.  I ended up using a promo shot from Guys and Dolls for Jeff Asch (Iago) so I really need to find a better picture.  That's part of the reason I had to split the post into 3, it's taking a lot longer to research than the Seattle cast did.

Judging from Twitter the commercial was shot after the YouTube video was released.  Looking at Tuacahn's Facebook page the cast for both Aladdin and Hairspray arrived 17th April, so I guess one of the first things they did was record those short promos for the YouTube video.

I know what you mean.  It just seems crazy that Disney likely have a full recording of Seattle which includes Jonathan Freeman and they're not releasing it.  In a way it gives me some hope that maybe they do have at least some intention of a Broadway run, otherwise why not release it?  Even if it's not perfect quality just call it a live recording, people would understand. And the audio quality on the short clip of A Million Miles Away was fine!! I'm still amazed at how few leaks there were.  The entire audio of Mermaid was on YouTube not long after opening night. For Aladdin there was practically nothing leaked.

I know, I still can't get over them using real camels! Just based on everything so far I think this may have a slightly bigger budget than Seattle did, but that makes sense as it's running for a lot longer. I guess they'll just cut the fake camel joke.  I wonder how much of the trio's (and Genie's) 4th wall breaking is actually scripted and how much is left up to the cast and creatives of each production?[/quote]
