Media Theatre to Present Disney's ALADDIN JR. This Summer

Disney's "Aladdin Jr", the one hour youth version of the hit Broadway musical, delights audiences each weekend now through August at The Media Theatre. Saturday performances are at 11am with Sunday shows at Noon.

Based on the classic animated film in which a humorous genie assists the young Aladdin in his adventurous quest in which he meets up with the beautiful Princess Jasmine, the score features Grammy and Oscar winning songs like "A Whole New World" and "Friend Like Me".

A downtrodden and lovelorn Aladdin meets up with an eccentric and hilarious Genie in this upbeat tale of wishes, magic carpet rides, and a power-hungry official trying to stop the proceedings. It's a perfect show for ages 4 and up, with colorful costumes and video graphics to delight and spur the young audience's imagination. Adults will enjoy it, too, as they remember the hugely popular animated film they may have seen years ago.
