[quote="Chris"]Yeah, this show just shows how much Disney actually do listen. They only planned to do the Pilot and license it out, but the show proved a success in Seattle and went on to be the best grossing show of the year at the Tuacahn and The Muny. Aladdin often does feel like it gets missed compared to the other "fab four" films, but people showed their support for the show and Disney listened and now we have it coming to Broadway. :D Well last time 5th Avenue was handling everything and Disney just put me in touch with them and they went above and beyond anything I could have expected (remember the Jafar call they gave me a copy of). I did reach out to Disney about a month ago and haven't heard anything back yet. I'll try again now that they've made the official announcement. Hopefully things will work out, but if not I can still reach out to the cast directly, which I did last time before I started working with 5th Avenue. I'm just hoping we get more episodes of the JMI show! I still get that tune stuck in my head![/quote]
