in 8th grade i played the genie in aladin jr. BEST PART EVER!!! you get so much freedom with the singing and the acting! the only thing that sucked about it... was that my teacher made me paint my body and not wear a tight shirt..... i always caught a chill lol.
this is weird, one video of this part Genie said tada and said I know that ya`ll don`t speak Genie but in Genie it means surisped now ya`ll be louder then that, the audience claps, and then Genie saids that he`s a sumf with a probelm.....how come it all different in this one???
@nighthorse17 its theater, and the genie parts have some general lines he has to say, but he ad libs alot. i went to watch 2 shows on the same day, and the jokes were different-actually the genie was an entirely different person. the genie also keeps the jokes up to date with modern society, and its one part that makes the show really good
The magic carpet is sooooo cute! ^__^ Wish I can be her (The Genie calls her a girl at the end of the play), but its closing, plus I'm physically disabled :(
I'm from Mexico and we've just made this musical in my high school, yesterday it were the last plays and it was really cool, all the actors were from my school and they're great! I was behind everything, I'm part of staff, my legs are still killing me but I think it was worth it! I totally loved it and now I can't stop seeing this and listening to the songs from this musical! :D
HAHAHA the guy who plays aladdin looks like hes in a cheetah girl movie .. un less its just me... LMAOOO but great show.. see this is why i want to go to disney land :)
@ginncullen Abu's not in the stage version. "One Jump Ahead" is changed to reflect this, with the line "You're my only friend, Abu." to "I could use a friend or two"
@ThePoeticAngel This genie has been my favorite. All the version that this Genie did on 1/2/208 has been the best one. I hate the english version of friend like me in the movie. There is no expression in the singing!
@SonicTheHedgehog1224 wait I just noticed that ever time it sounds the same when the Genie is behind the carpet >.< that means the carpet is still silenced (I think) but atleast moves more
I'm still on the fence about this. Maybe the incredible performances in the movie set my standards too high, maybe I'm upset because it's not exactly what I remember, but I can't say whether or not I like this. I do think that the anachronistic jokes are a bit too much, though. That's Hercules' bit. I liked TLM on broadway, because they used more general jokes (lawyers, don't you just love em?) and seemed like they were honoring the film more.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i hate plays that talk to the audience. It ruins the chain. and all of those stupid jokes "genie craig" although i gotta admit that all the Genie's are kinda cool
@tortoisegirl19, "i hate plays that talk to the audience". But that's what makes it a different experience compared to being passive and watching a movie. The actors can play off from audience reaction... It's theater.
Actually, the characters in Aladdin the movie break the 1st wall too. The merchant at the beginning tries to sell us stuff, and Genie does it a few times as well. ...lol,
@ChasehaWing, 1st or 4th wall? The audience doesn't react in the movies though, like how "Malcolm in the Middle" talks to the camera. I'm talking more like the Genie. The Genie reacts to the audience and vice versa... you can't do that with a movie.
@filmfreak11 well technically the audience's various reactions TO the film can be caused by the breaking of the 4th wall. it can be used to prevoke a response. but in this case its purly to entertain the little kids. however, when the jeanie does it it sorta brings a comic releif in a way.
@filmfreak11 actually it can still be a different experience without asking the audience for a favor or whatever. like when i saw a funny thing happened on the way to the forum, one guy got up to go to the bathroom, and nathan lane stopped everything and said to him "Excuse me, I'm trying to do a show here. Can you please hold it until intermission?" and the aduience cracked up and the guy was so embarressed lol.
@ifxckinheartpink89 actually i have heard that the toy story show is not coming from a worker, this show is staying...but i don't know for sure if she was telling the truth
Holy crap! I think I saw this one. I was at one of the shows when he did the Sanjaya joke. I love the Genie. They way his jokes always change is amazing!
@Warmaster966 I'm a big fan of Robin Williams, but I think that this genie is pretty good too. His humour is different from Robin's, but I still like him, he's funny.
one of the dance moves/gestures made me think, if you can interupt someones 3 wishes by rubbing the lamp before your done, then what if while the genie was waiting, it rubbed its own lamp? would it grant itself 3 wishes?
omg that iz my favorite song outa the whole movie. i better call genie craig, im captain jack sparrow savy, that onley on american idol. lol i luv the genie.
