About Aladdin
Aladdin, the hit musical based on the Academy Award®-winning animated film, opened on Broadway at the New Amsterdam Theatre to critical acclaim on March 20, 2014 and quickly established itself as one of the biggest new blockbusters in recent years. Having played over 3,000 performances, the New York production is among the Top 20 longest runs in Broadway history.

Hailed by The New York Times as “fabulous and extravagant,” the Broadway production has broken 16 New Amsterdam Theatre house records and spawned nine additional productions on four continents. Worldwide it has welcomed more than 16 million people and can be seen currently on Broadway and on tour across North America, as well as in Japan and Spain, with a UK tour opening shortly.

Produced by Disney Theatrical Productions, Aladdin features music by Tony Award and eight-time Oscar® winner Alan Menken (Beauty and the Beast, Newsies, Sister Act), lyrics by two-time Oscar winner Howard Ashman (Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid), three-time Tony Award and three-time Oscar winner Tim Rice (Evita, Aida) and six-time Tony Award nominee Chad Beguelin (The Prom, The Wedding Singer), with a book by Beguelin, and is directed and choreographed by two-time Tony Award winner Casey Nicholaw (The Book of Mormon).  

Aladdin, adapted from the animated Disney film and centuries-old folktales including “One Thousand and One Nights,” is brought to fresh theatrical life in this bold new musical. Aladdin’s journey sweeps audiences into an exciting world of daring adventure, classic comedy and timeless romance.  This new production features a full score, including the five cherished songs from the Academy Award-winning soundtrack and more written especially for the stage.

The animated film Aladdin was released by Disney in 1992 and was a critical and box office smash, becoming the highest-grossing film of the year. The film won the Oscar for Best Original Score and introduced the hit song “A Whole New World,” which won the second of the film’s two Academy Awards as Best Original Song.  The Peabo Bryson/Regina Belle recording of the tune soared to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. 

Aladdin is designed by seven-time Tony-winning scenic designer Bob Crowley, eight-time Tony-winning lighting designer Natasha Katz, three-time Tony-winning costume designer Gregg Barnes and sound designer Ken Travis.

The production team also includes illusion designers Jim Steinmeyer and Rob Lake, hair designer Josh Marquette and makeup designer Milagros Medina-Cerdeira.  The music team is headed by music supervisor and music director Michael Kosarin, who also created the vocal and incidental music arrangements, joined by orchestrator Danny Troob and dance music arranger Glen Kelly. John MacInnis is the associate choreographer, Jason Trubitt is the production supervisor and Myriah Bash is the general manager.

Anne Quart serves as co-producer.

The current North American tour has played in over 40 cities to more than a half million people since launching in October 2022.  A previous tour played to an additional nearly 3 million patrons.

New Leadership Structure Announced for Cincinnati Landmark Productions

CLPThe Executive Board of Cincinnati Landmark Productions announced a change in its leadership structure this week.

Rodger Pille, formerly Managing Director for the west-side based non-profit arts organization, becomes the second Executive Director in its 41-year history as Tim Perrino, founder and previous Executive Director, takes a step back from day-to-day management to focus on artistic responsibilities for the organization as well as new endeavors outside the company.

In 1982, Perrino created Cincinnati Young People’s Theatre (CYPT), which later became Cincinnati Landmark Productions (CLP). The organization began as a summer teen theater program that expanded to become the producer and nautical caretaker of the Showboat Majestic in 1990. The organization re-organized and incorporated as Cincinnati Landmark Productions in 2002 when it purchased, renovated and opened the Covedale Center for the Performing Arts in West Price Hill. Perrino’s organization left the Showboat in 2013 after 23 years of stewardship, making him the second longest caretaker of the National Historic Landmark. In 2015, CLP finished construction and opened the Warsaw Federal Incline Theater in East Price Hill. Cincinnati Landmark Productions merged with Madcap Puppets – the popular local touring company – in 2017 and in 2018, it finished renovation and opened the new Madcap Education Center, a comprehensive arts education training facility in Westwood.

“This has been wholly my initiative,” Perrino said. “I am looking for a little time to do other important things. I’ll write my Showboat memoirs and a couple shows. I’ll accept some offers to direct shows from friends in theater companies around the country. Especially, I will do some travelling with my wife and see my grandsons more often. Plus, I will still handle some significant duties for CLP.”

“Tim’s legacy at CLP could never be fully quantified,” said Doug Ridenour, Board President. “His amazing leadership, his vision of this organization, starting with CYPT, his years of stewardship of the Showboat and the construction of three arts venues on the west side of Cincinnati has created a thriving non-profit group that will last generations. While he is taking a well-deserved ‘stepping back’ position, the entire organization is thrilled that he will continue to stay very involved during his next chapter. While we say thank you for all of these years of service, we also say get back to work as there is still much to do.”

Pille began his career as a communications professional for popular local attractions, Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal and later the Newport Aquarium. He joined Landmark in 2012 as the Communications/Development Director for Landmark before becoming the Project Manager for the Incline Theater and Madcap Education Center developments, overseeing the fundraising and tax-credit allocations as well project management for the construction of the new facilities. He became the Managing Director in 2019 and oversaw major funding initiatives, including securing crucial relief funding during the COVID-related shutdown.

“Rodger has held many positions within this organization, as well as with other non-profit groups, where he has acquired many skills and knowledge,” Ridenour said. “It is these valuable experiences that make him uniquely qualified to take over the reins of CLP and he has the unanimous support of the Board of Directors.”

Cincinnati Landmark Productions hires over 200 local artists – on-stage and off – to produce main stage seasons at its Covedale Center and Incline Theater venues totaling 160 show nights each year and drawing over 40,000 patrons. Additionally, it provides area young people with year-round opportunities to train and experience the arts through its Cincinnati Young People’s Theatre program as well as music, dance and art classes/camps at the Madcap Education Center. CLP inspires over 50,000 children and families each year through the power of storytelling and puppetry through its extensive Madcap Puppets tour of over 200 Midwest schools, community centers, parks and libraries.

Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park Opens Its Rosenthal Shelterhouse Season with SANCTUARY CITY

PIP_logoAn Unconventional Love Story About Two Young Immigrants

CINCINNATI (Aug. 17, 2023) – The Rosenthal Shelterhouse Season opens Sept. 16 with SANCTUARY CITY, which tells the story of two U.S. immigrants in the wake of the 9/11 tragedy. The strikingly intimate play, written by Pulitzer Prize winner Martyna Majok, runs through Oct. 22. Opening night is Sept. 21.

How far would you go to help a friend, and what would you be willing to risk? This question is at the heart of SANCTUARY CITY, which features two young people who become one another’s sanctuaries after the 9/11 tragedy. Through years of late-night conversations, they see each other through adolescence and fight to find their place in the world.

“At a time of profound polarization on this delicate issue, Majok has given us something that transcends politics as only the best and most humane art can,” writes Elysa Gardner of New York Stage Review.

The two main characters are known only by their initials, B and G. When G becomes a naturalized citizen, she finds a way to help B stay in the country legally. But what begins as a simple choice becomes far more complicated, and G and B’s relationship teeters on the brink of falling apart. Playwright Martyna Majok draws upon her own experience as a Polish-born immigrant raised in New Jersey, infusing authenticity into their stories.

In an interview with DC Theater Arts, she says, “I want to invite people who are not from the world of the show to feel welcome in it. At the same time, for the folks that are from the world, I don’t wanna pander, I don’t wanna over-explain. I want someone who is from Jersey, from my high school, or with their parents to say, ‘That’s right!’ and not feel like I’m educating about my experience… I want both of
those audience members to feel welcome in these stories.”

SANCTUARY CITY begins in the immediate aftermath of 9/11 in 2001, but its portrayal of the immigrant experience is relevant today. As Director Kareem Fahmy explains, “It feels super contemporary because these issues around who gets to stay in the country, and why, and all that stuff hasn’t changed that much. If anything, it’s even more volatile with what’s been happening over the last few years.”

Despite the seriousness of the subject, the play is infused with humor throughout.

“I think it’s important for the theatrical experience to feel really balanced for an audience,” Fahmy continues. “So, we’re leaning into allowing the full humanity of the characters to emerge through how they use humor. I want an audience to have a good time no matter what the play is.”

An eclectic group of six mid-pubescents vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime.

Six spellers enter; one speller leaves a champion! At least the losers get a juice box.
