As long as you have a ticket for your performance, you'll be allowed into the venue. Both formal and informal clothing is accepted. From casual t-shirts, jeans and flip-flops to a cocktail dress or tuxedo, the spectrum of audience style is so broad that there is no specific dress code.
ALADDIN is approximately two hours and thirty minutes, including one intermission. ALADDIN is intended for guests 6 and up. All guests require a ticket, regardless of age.

What is not allowed in Aladdin?
ALADDIN contains theatrical smoke and fog effects as well as strobe lighting during parts of the show. Is photography allowed in the theatre? The use of camera and sound recording equipment is strictly prohibited.
Disney has added a content advisory warning to well-loved family films, such as 1992's Aladdin, that says the stereotypes "were wrong then and are wrong now". The warning advises that there are negative depictions or mistreatment of people or cultures in some of its Disney+ films.
Aladdin is perfect for children and Disney fans, but adults will enjoy the colour, costumes, and enthusiasm as well. (The actor who played the genie was HILARIOUS! Would definitely recommend.) Excellent show!
It's suitable for all children over the five years, but we recommend parental guidance for children under eight years because of the movie's mild fantasy themes and very mild violence.
You are allowed to drink water, soft drinks, or alcoholic drinks that are purchased at the venue. Certain venues allow audiences to bring their own sealed refreshments, but many Broadway theatres do not.
What are the best seats to see Aladdin on Broadway?
I always try to sit in the center orchestra or close to the aisle if I'm in a side section, say seats 2-8 or 1-7. And, as suggested above, rows D - L or M are best. I don't care for the balcony and if I have to sit in the mezzanine I like the first 2 rows, which are AA and BB at the New Amsterdam.
Avoid bringing large backpacks or shopping bags to the theatre since rows in a Broadway theatre are generally very close together. Since the seats are snug, there isn't enough space to house big bags. Your bags will be checked at the entrance so the less baggage, the sooner you can move past the security.
What Is Smart Casual? Smart casual is an approach to dressing professionally that mixes trendier pieces in with classic staples. The goal is an appearance that's clean and professional but doesn't look too formal. You want to look pulled together but a bit interesting and approachable.
But if you're coming straight from the office, or just feel more comfortable in a pair of trainers, that's fine too. Very few theatres operate a dress policy, and though traditionally evening performances are more formal than matinees, nobody will lambast you for wearing denim after 7pm.
All persons, bags, parcels, clothing, and other items may be subject to screening and/or security checks. Large bags must be stored at coat check. Patrons with concerns may request an alternative screening process.
Unless you're heading to a premiere, gala, or opening night, going to the theatre is hardly a red-carpet-style event! For special screenings where there will be a press attendance, smart-casual outfits are recommended. Other than that, wear what makes you feel comfortable!
Content is not suited for families. Even on the TV-rating it says the show contains -" fear, gore, strong language, sex and suicide." What part of that says suitable for families!
The script is super funny and full of one liners. The only slightly scary scene is the introduction to the Cave of Wonders, just because it gets a little loud and dark. Even Jafar doesn't read as “scary” and is actually quite funny throughout the show!
Which is the Best Musical: The Lion King or Aladdin? Both are great Broadway shows, and in the end, I would recommend both. If I had to pick just one, I would recommend Aladdin over The Lion King.
I would definitely recommend The Lion King on Broadway to anyone who enjoys musical theater. It's a great show for both adults and children, with its captivating story, colorful characters, and stunning visuals.
After receiving criticism last year, Disney is changing the way it addresses racism in its older animated films. On Oct. 15, Disney Plus introduced a new disclaimer that appears before older films like Dumbo (1941) and Aladdin (1992), warning viewers that the films include harmful stereotypes.
Aladdin eventually makes his way back to Agrabah to warn Razoul, but Jafar, posing as Jasmine, frames Aladdin for the Sultan's alleged murder and sentences him to execution.
The original Aladdin story was actually set in China. Aladdin is one of the stories compiled in The Thousand and One Nights — a collection of Middle Eastern and Indian folk tales, however, it did not appear in the original Arabic text.
