The Cast of Aladdin Host Drama League Nominations Today!


Today at 11AM EST Adam Jacobs, Courtney Reed and James Monroe Iglehart will announce this year's Drama League Awards nominations!

The announcement will be made at Sardi's in New York and, even better, live streamed on Broadway World so make sure you check it out!

Good luck to all the potential nominees!

Aladdin was nominated for 2 Drama League Awards in 2014, Outstanding Production of a Broadway or Off-Broadway Musical and Distinguished Performance Award for James Monroe Igelhart's portrayal of Genie.

UPDATED - And you can now watch the announcement for yourself right here!

Gotta admit, I cracked up when James did his little backtrack after saying they were announcing the awards!  But my favourite moment had to be the smile they all shared when Adam announced Andrew Keenan-Bolger as a nominee for the Distinguished Performance Award, it just made my heart glad and I couldn't help but smile with them.

I just want to say a massive congratulations to all nominees and give a special shout out to some Disney/Aladdin alums!

Congratulations to Director/Choreographer Casey Nicholaw and Seattle Omar Andrew Keenan-Bolger, and the entire cast and creative team, on Tuck Everlasting's nomination for Outstanding Production of  Broadway or Off-Broadway Musical!  And a massive congratulations to Andrew for his Distinguished Performance Award nomination!

Congratulations to Samantha Massell, Brandt Martinez and the entire cast and creative team of Fiddler on the Roof for their nomination for Outstanding Revival of a Broadway or Off-Broadway Musical!
