The romantic duet performed by Aladdin and Jasmine, “A Whole New World,” remains the unforgettable highlight of the show, always leading every audience to an emotional ovation. A Production That Dazzles With Every Performance. Alan Menken (composer) and the lyrics of Howard Ashman and Tim Rice compose a remarkable blend of nostalgia and originality in the score, with several all-new songs woven alongside the classic standards.
