Has anyone seen confirmation that this will be available in the UK? Yes. DisneyPlusUK also put out the same tweet. |

Aladdin was recorded in the West End and is supposed to be available soon. I would assume this would be on D+ rather than a third party site like Broadway HD. I suspect Disney will sit on Aladdin until it's finished its run on Broadway and US tour. |

I suspect Disney will sit on Aladdin until it's finished its run on Broadway and US tour. But we also weren't expecting Hamilton to be released for another year. I'd argue Aladdin is more typical family friendly material for D+, but we'll see. I'll likely hear about it here before at work. |

Excellent timing for them - this will hook in a lot of the free trial folk to come back and pay for another subscription. My betting is shortly before July 3rd they'll announce a couple of other relatively big additions due in the autumn, to try to encourage people to subscribe for a year rather than month per month.

Amazing news! It makes sense to release it now because all of Disney’s plans for original content have presumably been paused or pushed back, meaning anything ready will be bumped up etc.
Do we think Disney will censor anything? I know there’s the odd swear word in it that they might not like.

I know there’s the odd swear word in it that they might not like. We watched Three Men and A Baby on D+ over the weekend and that hasn't been censored at all. That was only a few S words though, which are now allowed more in lower rated films than originally. I'm not sure what swears are in Hamilton though. |

This looks like basically all the regular B-rolls in one clip. It includes Betsy Struxness (the tall white woman with short blonde hair), who had left the show by the time the show was filmed in whole.
It's not a trailer for the film.

Ah ok, so probably something BroadwayWorld Spain have put together themselves. |

I did mention a while back that Disney wasn't the first studio I would have associated Hamilton with, and people pointed out that Disney have a variety of brands they release content under. However, DisneyPlus seems to be commited to providing family-friendly content. Lin-Manuel has said, "If we have to mute a word here or there to reach the largest audience possible, I'm OK with that, because your kids already have the original language memorized. I don't think we're depriving anyone of anything if we mute an f-bomb here or there to make our rating." |

With this being released by Disney + I'm hoping it's a very classy recording. I really like the recording of Newsies and hope it's of that standard. Very excited!

Cancelled until January 2021 at the earliest.
That goes beyond the current cast's contracts, so who knows what will happen. I feel for all of them.

Given the state theatre will be in when it re-opens it seems unlikely many actors will refuse offers to stay in their current shows, even if they were planning on leaving beforehand.

Maybe Lin will do a limited stint when it reopens to create more buzz?

Lin has confirmed on Twitter that they have censored 2 F-bombs in the show to meet the PG-13 rating
From Lin’s Twitter
1. In Yorktown, there's a mute over "I get the f___ back up again"
2. "Southern *record scratch*kin' Democratic Republicans."
Aside from those there is no other censorship
