Just look at how much they added to Mermaid! The cast recording is 27 tracks and it's missing the entr'acte (mostly likely to keep it to 1 CD). <br /> <br />Personally I wouldn't give To Be Free to Jasmine, I'd give it back to Genie (like Menken originally wanted it to be, plus it would be a great way to end Act 1 with Al becoming a Prince). Give Jasmine new song, like a duet with Sultan in the garden, or something where she runs away and see's the market for the first time. <br /> <br />Or how about a duet between Aladdin and Jasmine as they both look at the Palace and feel trapped. I'd love to see a song with Jafar and Sultan (just before Prince Ali) as he tries to convince him he can solve the "problem" with Jasmine (interupted mid-song by Prince Ali starting) <br /> <br />Proud of Your Boy could be added back in with a little work. Maybe when Al realises how badly he's messed up and is on his way to tell Jasmine the truth? They'd just have to work into the story how he's always wanted to make his mother proud, and possibley give Genie a sarcastic line about how his mother would be proud of him before his "excuse me, master". <br /> <br />They could even revisit the idea of having a song leading to/during the final battle (as was attempted with High Adventure). It could end up a fantastic quartet between Al, Jasmine, Genie and Jafar! <br /> <br />There is so much they could do with this on Broadway!</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Salukfan</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon Jan 07, 2008 6:42 pm<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody"></span> <table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"> <tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>Quote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote">Stop trying to lie to me <img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /></td> </tr> </table> <span class="postbody"> <br /> <br />They could even try to expand upon Aladdin's motivations and work in the "Proud of Your Boy" number, though I'm not sure how they'd do it.

Jasmine's song "To Be Free", maybe give Jafar another song, perhaps Sultan about his troubles with his daughter? <br />And they can add more scenes like...shoot Aladdin and Jasmine talking while going to his hovel. He lives on the other side of the city. I doubt it was silent the entire walk there <img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" />. Or maybe show what Jafar told the guards about capturing Prince Ali? Because Lord knows I've love to hear that.
