From Aladdin to Hamilton
Tonight, there's going to be a touch of Disney magic in the air at Hamilton as Aladdin's Trevor Dion Nicholas and Travis Kerry join the West End cast of Lin-Manuel Miranda's smash hit musical.
Trevor, who dazzled audiences night after night with his boundless joy and enthusiasm as Genie for the show's entire run, steps into the role of George Washington, the first President of the United States of America. Travis, who joined Aladdin's energetic ensemble in 2017, is now joining the ensemble of Hamilton, trading the high octane production numbers of Agrabah for revolutionary America.
I've been meaning to see Hamilton for a while now, so now I have no excuse! I'm really excited to see Trev in a new show, I'm sure he'll bring the same passion and energy to Washington as he did to Genie and really make the role his own.
Best wishes to both of you, and the rest of the new cast, as you make your debuts tonight!
