Tonight, Aladdin's US Tour welcomes a new street rat and a new Genie as Jonah Ho'okano joins the cast as our new Aladdin and Korie Lee Blossey takes on the phenomenal cosmic role of Genie as the show opens in North Carolina!

To celebrate, Disney Theatrical have released new production images featuring Jonah and Korie along with their incredible castmates;

For Jonah this is his Agrabah debut, whilst Korie has been with the US Tour from the start as Standby Genie and Sultan. I saw Korie a Sultan in LA and he was fantastic, I'm sure he'll be a truly magical Genie. They join a cast featuring Kaenaonalani Kekoa as Jasmine, Patrick R. Brown as Jafar, Reggie de Leon as Iago, Jerald Vincent as Sultan, Zach Bencal as Babkak, Ben Chavez as Omar, and Colt Prattes as Kassim.

Aladdin opens at the Belk Theater tonight and runs through to September 29th. Tickets are available here.

Make some magic everyone!
