The Tipton Rosemark Academy Fine Arts Department invites you to the desert oasis of Agrabah and into an exciting world of daring adventure, classic comedy, and timeless romance.

Disney’s Aladdin, Jr is adapted from the animated Disney film and brings beloved characters to life on the stage in this bold new musical.  The updated release of Aladdin Jr. reflects material added for the Broadway production, which restored several songs by Howard Ashman and Alan Menken that were not included in the 1992 animated film, such as “Proud of Your Boy,” “High Adventure,” and “Babkak, Omar, Aladdin, Kassim.” They now appear alongside popular crowd favorites from the score, including “A Whole New World,” “Friend Like Me,” and “Prince Ali.” Originally released in 2005, Aladdin Jr. is one of the most performed titles in the Broadway Junior collection, which condenses popular Broadway shows for school-aged performers.
