On this week’s show, we speak with Jacob Dickey, who is currently in the ensemble of Disney’s “Aladdin” on Broadway where he also covers the roles of Aladdin and Kassim.  We talk with Jacob about what it is like working on his first Broadway show, covering multiple roles, being in a long run of a show, “Aladdin Camp,” and his love for biscuits.  Before that, Rob and Jamie welcome back Leslie Kritzer.  And later in the show, Rob takes us through a little history of Disney Theatrical Productions and the New Amsterdam Theatre

On this week’s show, we speak with Jon Hoche, Danny Miller, and Jacob Williams who are “The Voodoo Team” from King Kong on Broadway. Jon is the voice of Kong, Danny is responsible for Kong’s jaw movement and facial expressions, and Jacob calls the cues and operates Kong’s shoulders, arms, and wrists. Together, they help bring Kong to life on stage eight times a week. They share with us some secrets about the creature and talk about the magic of the show and their life-long work in puppetry. But, before that, Rob and Jamie talk about a lucky stash of vintage Playbills.
