00:09Disney movies, which are well-known in Japan, are also musicals.
00:13It is being performed as
00:18Aladdin, a poor young man, and the princess's love story
00:23gin
00:34The Lion Prince Simba's Growth and Adventures
00:38King
00:41These two shows are currently playing on Broadway and are popular with children.
00:45This is a work that can be enjoyed by adults as well.
00:51What is the secret to being loved across generations? This time, Aladdin
00:57Michael James, who plays the Genie in the film
01:00- I played the role of Nara in The Lion King with Scott for 9 years
01:03An interview with Kishii Simmons, who played the role.
01:07Also, the Disney Ombu, which the two of you have been involved with for many years...
01:11Roadway celebrated its 30th anniversary last year,
01:15What do you think is the reason why it's loved by people all year round?
01:20Music.
01:23Music after all
01:24Speaking of bereaved families, history is the world Perfect
01:30The owners are all precisely planned, so all history
01:36As if to show that these people were aware of their own limitations
01:39It is possible to
01:41Disney is loved in every country, isn't it?
01:48He played the role of the Genie who comes out of the magic lamp in Aladdin.
01:51Michael, who plays the role
01:56Their overwhelming performances captivate the audience.
02:00When Michael was chosen to play the Genie
02:04How did you feel?
02:14Didn't you know it was a house?
02:19This is a soup that has been passed down through generations, and Omi is an event.
02:32What would you say is an interesting task for the team?
02:37The timing of this Souple Arm α-ring sandwich is too slow
02:42And Kissy is Simba's childhood friend in The Lion King.
02:45He played good roles for the longest period in Broadway history, nine years.
02:49I have been acting.
02:52I'd love to know the secret to your long-standing success in this role.
03:15I recently had the experience of performing on stage for four months, and every day was a battle.
03:19I was surprised, but I certainly get fresh reactions every day.
03:22I was able to do my best with him, so even taking that into account, 9 years is...
03:27Those are truly incredible numbers, so my admiration and respect for them have grown even stronger.
03:31Yes, I did.
03:47I will make sure I never forget.
03:53Actually, these three people were at a show held in Tokyo two years ago.
03:57They're co-starring.
04:02That's Disney Broadway Hits.
04:06Many famous songs sung by Disney cast members and Kyomoto
04:09I raised it up.
04:14And it has been decided that it will be held again this July.
04:18Both of them, along with Kyomoto-san, will be appearing again this year, following their appearance two years ago.
04:47I also had the opportunity to work with them for the first time last year, but I wasn't in it.
04:51Watching the two of them sing from the wings during the performance was incredibly inspiring.
04:55That experience made me realize just how amazing the world is, so I'd like to join you again this year.
04:59I'm really looking forward to being able to do it.
05:05Actually, I'm honored to have been given the opportunity to see backstage today.
05:09But
05:10Since this is a rare opportunity, are there any points I should pay attention to?
05:14I would like you to tell me.
05:34So, we headed to the theater where Aladdin was being performed.
05:39This time, a theater journalist living in New York and Disney
05:43—I accompanied Yuuki Kageyama, who is deeply involved in both the artwork and the craftsmanship.
05:47I received it.
05:57One hour before the performance
05:59We'll go behind the scenes of that show.
06:05That's amazing!
06:06It's really low.
06:08OK
06:08Wow
06:10There is air and the surrounding area.
06:12Yeah, that's true.
06:14Hmm
06:16All of this is automated.
06:21automatic
06:22automatic
06:23Air is automated, automated, automated
06:27Alfort
06:27Please bring some to Japan too.
06:35And then we went to the back of the stage.
06:41This is what Michael was talking about.
06:43Propare is a street with props
06:45Did you say that?
06:46Will the cast members walk through during the actual performance?
06:52The props and set pieces are placed directly behind the stage.
06:57Aladdin has a lot of gadgets and they are often taken out and put away.
07:02We also have them in the backstage area where the performers move around.
07:23Automated manual fault
07:27I was also allowed to go up on stage.
07:31I was also allowed to go up on stage.
07:33Automated manual fault
07:35Hmm
07:38It looks like an amazing attraction!
07:40It's like an amusement park attraction.
07:45That's amazing!
07:45On the stage of Aladdin on Claude Way
07:48now
07:50I haven't seen it yet.
07:53Going ahead from the back area must have been an amazing experience.
07:56Has it started yet?
07:58And then towards the audience seats
08:06The area between the stage and the audience is the orchestra pit.
08:10The place where the orchestra and conductor are
08:16Nether and the second floor of the park
08:18What do you think of this audience?
08:22Hey
08:23Well, that's why
08:25It's not just the design, but you can tell at a glance that it has an incredible history.
08:28Right?
08:30It has a very noble feel to it.
08:33Also, I was just talking about this a little while ago.
08:35It fits the world of Aladdin so perfectly, it's almost as if it was made specifically for it.
08:38Because we're in a relationship
08:40It's really wonderful, isn't it?
08:41The audience seating is also part of the art.
08:44That's amazing!
08:46It was a valuable experience that brought me great emotion.
08:55I finished watching Aladdin without any problems.
08:58Michael's
09:01The way he took control of the situation after his appearance was amazing.
09:06They've already taken everything from the finished product onwards.
09:09The two main characters
09:11The story of the two of them, including Hiroi, was wonderful.
09:15Also, I really don't understand how the magic carpet works.
09:17I wonder what's going on now
09:20They were amazing in the entertainment aspects beyond acting and singing.
09:24I did
09:34Disney Broadway show to be held in Japan this July
09:38Kids
09:39Kyomoto-san will be appearing again, following his appearance two years ago.
09:42There was someone I wanted to meet in New York.
09:58The reunion was with Broadway actor Carr, with whom he had co-starred two years prior.
10:03La Lindsay
10:05We will be performing together on the same stage again this year.
10:09Actually, this is my first time visiting New York.
10:14Hello
10:19No matter which street you look at, you'll see theaters and billboards for various works.
10:24The sight of them lined up like that is rare in Japan, so that alone makes it a musical.
10:28As I walked around, I really felt that this is a town that is loved.
10:45And Carla-san starred in the Disney musical
10:49Cal
10:49In the Newsies Broadway production
10:52She's the actress who played the heroine, Catherine.
11:01In the Disney Broadway Hits from two years ago,
11:05I sang a duet of a Jugees song.
11:32It was an unusual arrangement, with her singing in English and me singing in Japanese.
11:37Therefore
11:37That might be a bit difficult for Carla as well.
11:40There might have been some parts that I messed up.
11:42When we actually sang, it was like we were looking into each other's eyes.
11:46Even if the language is different, I feel like there's something that can be conveyed.
11:50I was really supported in some ways.
11:53As the days go on, more and more and more
11:55The distance between Jack and Catherine is also growing.
11:59Shrink
12:00I think we were able to create a wonderful Newsies with all of that.
12:07knowing how our stories that we tell through Disney, through Broadway, through theater
12:12Connect all around the world
12:14I'm really looking forward to seeing you again soon when you come to Japan.
12:18I'll be waiting.
12:19Yay! Thank you so much. I am so thrilled to be on stage with you
12:24to sing with you, to hear your beautiful voice again. I'll see you in Tokyo.
12:29Thank you.
12:39To learn more about the charm of Disney musicals
12:42Next, we visited
12:46Kissy Simmons, whom I interviewed, has appeared on the show for many years.
12:49I was
12:50The Lion King
12:55In addition to Best Musical at the Tony Awards
12:58Winner of six awards, including the Best Set and Costume Design Award.
13:02They have performed over 10,000 shows since 1997.
13:06I got a behind-the-scenes look at a masterpiece.
13:12Wow, it's like a museum!
13:16Backstage, just like Aladdin
13:19Props and stage equipment are set up,
13:22Because various animals appear in The Lion King
13:26There are just so many things related to animals.
13:30amazing
13:34Seeing it from this distance is incredibly rare, isn't it?
13:40The puppets that appear in the play
13:59They're not staff members, they're actors.
14:05This room has costumes ranging from lions to hyenas.
14:15There is a wide variety of options.
14:18The scenery is completely different from the backyards I've seen before.
14:25This was also a valuable experience.
14:35I went to see The Lion King.
14:37The world-building is truly meticulously crafted down to the smallest detail.
14:41Actors are not just actors, they're like craftsmen.
14:46The way the animals move as if they were really alive.
14:53The way he completely embodies the role is truly that of a craftsman.
14:56I was really blown away by that too.
14:58So it's filled with lots of little details and attention to detail.
15:02I really understand why The Lion King has been around for so long.
15:06I felt like I had a good time.
15:07I got that feeling.
15:11Kyoto was inspired by authentic Disney musicals.
15:14Hon-san
15:15Disney Broadway Hits will be held this July.
15:20Thank you for watching.
