I saw the 1:50 showing of Aladdin today at the Hyperion Theatre and the performer playing Jasmine really irritates me, cuz she's so darn emotional throughout the whole show...especially when she's singing her solo, it's horrible!!
She always sounds like she's going to break down into an emotional outburst at any moment, whether she's singing or just saying her lines. I don't ever remember the character Jasmine (in the movie) ever being that way. Infact, if I recall, she was strong and in-control most of the time.
The guy playing Aladdin looked like he was 10, but then again, I'm very partial to my friend, Eddie, who plays that character...he's by far the best! And as for Jafar, the guy playing him was way too queeny for that role. Luckily, the Genie was really good!
I hadn't seen the Aladdin show in quite a while, and after seeing today's performance, I now remember why it's been so long. The show is stale and old, it needs to go away! It's time to put a brand new show in there. A show with a lot less dialouge and a lot more dancing & singing. Something that's more Hollywood themed, with elaborate costume changes, energetic music, and more pizzazz!!
So I was wondering, what do other MiceChatters feel about this show and the condition of it? If anything, at least get rid of that emotional Jasmine...I swear, I just want to b**ch slap that girl and tell her to lighten up!
And that ends my venting for the day!
