Disney’s “Aladdin” Broadway Musical has had to cancel one of its performances, due to a COVID-19 outbreak. Apparently, members of the company tested positive for COVID-19 during the routine protocols that have been put in place. As such, those protocols forced Disney to cancel the “Aladdin” performance scheduled for Wednesday, September 29th at the New Amsterdam Theatre in the NYC Theater District. Full refunds are being given to those who bought tickets for that particular night of “Aladdin”; as of writing this, there are no updates about whether or not any additional performance of “Aladdin” is going to be canceled, as well.
