Aladdin: The Show Went On!
Aladdin returned to the stage Thursday night after the musical was forced to go dark after some breakthrough COVID cases within the company.
NEW YORK - The hit Broadway musical 'Aladdin' will resume performances Thursday night after the show was forced to cancel a performance at the New Amsterdam Theatre Wednesday night due to breakthrough COVID cases.
"Through our rigorous testing protocols, breakthrough COVID-19 cases have been detected within the company of Aladdin at the New Amsterdam Theater," Disney Theatrical Productions said in a statement.
