[quote="Chris"]Well Alan Menken's on Twitter these days, you could always ask him :D I know it sounds silly, but you lose nothing by asking the question! And sometimes people can surprise you. Which leads me nicely on to this; [url]http://aladdinmusical.blogspot.com/2011/06/theres-so-much-more-to-me.html[/url] I'm very happy to present an interview with Adam Jacobs, Seattle's new Aladdin! I thought about starting a new thread, but figured everyone who's interested in the show comes in this thread anyway. He seems like a really nice guy, and his answers are great. They give a few more details about the show, without really giving anything away. He also "unofficially" confirms one of the cut songs we were all expecting to hear.[/quote]

I knew about Mermaid, but this is like the most amazing news since the show finished in Seattle! <br /> <br />It's just a question of "where" in Europe. Beauty and the Beast hasn't toured the UK for the last few years so I can see it replacing that, but there's also been pretty consistent rumors that Lion King may close in the West End "at some point" after the Olymics and most people assumed the re-worked Mermaid was being considered to replace it but Aladdin would be even better! But then Tarzan never made it to the UK so if they're going to open on the continent I'll go for a US regional production so I can understand it! <img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /> <br /> <br />Now I've got all that off my chest, that picture is awesome and I completely agree about a thread being needed to keep up with the cast!
