The star of Broadway's "Aladdin," "The Lion King," and "Les Miserables," Adam Jacobs joins David for this episode of "E-Ticket to Broadway" to discuss his love of the Disney Parks and the entire Disney catalogue. From his earliest days going to the Parks (and loving the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction and freaking out on Space Mountain), to feeling himself represented on the big screen when he saw "The Jungle Book" and "Aladdin," Adam is a true Disney "young at heart." Listen as Adam shares how he sang "Part of Your World" and "One Jump Ahead" as a kid, and what it was like reuniting with the Disney characters on the Disney Cruise Line. Adam performed at EPCOT's "Festival of the Arts" at Walt Disney World, and discusses how that experience has affected his kids' expectations of the Disney Theme Parks. David asks what makes Adam Jacobs so right for portraying Disney Princes (both Aladdin and Simba), and together they play "A Whole New World," a game about lands and worlds added to the Parks over the years. Be sure to tune in to hear Adam's love of Ursula, his ideas for an "Aladdin" dark ride, and what his three wishes would be for a perfect day at a Disney Theme Park.
