Back in February, I bought 4 tickets for Disney's Aladdin on Broadway for 24th April night show.
I bought the tickets through Headout app paying by credit card.
I must confess that after the purchase, as I didn´t receive the tickets via on-line nor e-mail, I became a bit skeptical. I thought I had been victim of a scam. I prepared myself to lose the entire money.
On the day of the show, approximately 1 hour prior to the beginning, I received a text message on my phone, stating that Carla, my Headout host, would be waiting for me with my tickets. Right in front of New Amsterdam Theatre, there she was delivering me an envelope with my 4 tickets.
What an amazing service from Headout!... A fair discounted price, no boring lines, no stress buying the tickets. Just being there on time, picking the tickets and enjoying the show! Well done Headout guys!
As for the show itself, well this was my first Broadway show and I must confess it was one of the most outstanding shows I've ever seen.
New Amsterdam Theatre has a very beautiful Art Nouveau architecture, is very comfortable (no problem for my 2 kids to see the show due to the configuration of the theatre) and has a remarkable acoustic.
Regarding the Disney's Aladdin show, there are not enough words to describe it. The acts, the music, the characters, the costumes, the design, the magic, everything was perfect, with such a fine tuning hard to match. Now I understand all the buzz surrounding Broadway shows... It is all well deserved.
It was pure magic, pure joy, pure entertainment. That's one of those experiences everyone should try at least once in their lifetime.
