Aladdin Show Question plus a request

[nicholas]

I was wondering if the song "Proud of Your Boy," which was cut from the movie, appears in the stage show at Disneyland. And also, if it does, if anyone could possibly help me get my hands on a copy of the sheet music? I've been trying to find it FOREVER, but since it's not in print, the only option is to pay someone to transcribe it from listening to it, which can be quite expensive. I have a lead sheet with the melody line and some chords indicated on it, but no full accompanyment. Can anyone help?? Thanks in advance!

Nope, the song was cut as well.

I think since they were trying to get as much as they could in 45 minutes, they'd rather go with the characters they already have and maybe give them some more depth (ie why Jasmine has a song... yet is there any true reason for Aladdin to fall in love with her in the show? not so much...) rather than add a new character and concept into the already smushed 45 minutes.

Just watched this show twice today... :lookaroun

I personally love the addition of To Be Free. Besides the fact that it's a beautiful song, IMHO it does a good job of revealing Jasmine's feelings - whereas in the movie it was revealed when she talked to her father in the beginning. I agree, though, they could have added a bit more to Aladdin and Jasmine's first meeting - they don't really show them connecting like they do in the film ("Sometimes you just feel so... trapped.").
