BIO
Aladdin's Jacob Dickey grew up in a conservative Christian military family where he learned about hard work, discipline and fell in love with music. He made his Broadway debut in the role of Aladdin before he even went on in his ensemble track. He later took over the the title role on the National tour and then returned to the Broadway company. He again just returned to the New Amsterdam Theatre after a star turn as Moses in Stephen Schwartz's Prince of Egypt. Jacob finds social media more as self expression than a business tool, has embraced being ethnically ambiguous and has knows first hand the pressure of the spotlight. With stagnation as a motivating fear, Jacob will use his million dollar smile and push all his limits.
