Twisted: The Untold Story of a Royal Vizier (Whole Show)

WARNING: 'Twisted' contains adult language.
From the creators of 'A Very Potter Musical' and 'Holy Musical B@man!', comes 'Twisted: The Untold Story of a Royal Vizier.' Hop on your flying carpet, because this musical parody retells the classic tale of Aladdin... from the villain's point of view! Long ago in a Magic Kingdom, one misunderstood Royal Vizier will go on a quest to save his city from its bumbling sultan, an invading prince, and the most notorious thief to ever live! With the help of the Kingdom's free-spirited, teenage Princess, the Vizier must find a magical lamp containing a wish-granting Djinn (who's really funny, by the way) and defeat the city's most-wanted criminal... Aladdin! This musical adventure celebrates and lovingly pokes fun at everyone's favorite series of hand-drawn, animated films.
'Twisted' features story & script by Matt Lang, Nick Lang, and Eric Kahn Gale. With music by A.J. Holmes and lyrics by Kaley McMahon. It is directed by Brian Holden.

I just realized that the disney “villains” singing in “Twisted” were not randomly chosen. They each represent one of jafar’s motivations and show him that you can’t always have what you want without hurting other people. Ursula represents his desire to be respected by the people and to be a fair ruler. Scar represents his desire for equality between people from all backgrounds. Gaston represents his love for his wife and his desire to save her. Maleficent represents his desire to fit in amongst the people and the court. Captain hook represents his frustration caused by the Princess’ lack of responsibility. Huge props to the people that wrote this musical. This level of depth is just incredible(unless i’m over-interpreting).

And I should have clarified... that is the theaters'/production companies' reasoning I was stating (not that they don't think people would care, but they don't think they'd sell as many tickets at such high prices if they put their shows up for viewing regularly). There is also the fact that when it comes to putting plays up in traditional media, the rules regarding profit/pay and other factors are different, and makes it more complicated. But... several musicals (Newsies, Shrek, and Legally Blonde being three big ones) have done it in recent years, and hopefully a trend will form where more Broadway and Off Broadway productions will start showing their plays, at least after they're over.

1:14:06 Everyone's talking about the tigerfucker joke (rightfully so, its hysterical) but honesty this whole musical number is underrated. Its so fucking funny, but it also like.. unironically slaps. the way he sings "let them laugh, thats just fine, but the last laugh will be mine" is so satisfying to me, and near the end where theyre all singing "they'll remember achmeeeeed" is literally SO GOOD. like unironically, even without the jokes. also achmed is just generally the funniest character ever devised, the way the actor plays him is absolutely hilarious, and even though he's kind of an annoying asshole this song somehow makes him (and his guards) really endearing. overall extremely underrated.

[@suctioncupman2100]

I think it's interesting that Achmed's goal is to be remembered, and Jafar's goal is to help his kingdom, but Jafar is also desperate to cement his legacy and be remembered for how he helps the kingdom, but then rejects that for the sake of actually helping. So where Jafar is willing to sacrifice his legacy for his kingdom, Achmed is willing to destroy other kingdoms so that people remember him. Basically, Jafar has an ego but knows to keep it in check for the greater good, but Achmed doesn't do that.

The implications of jafar not escaping after being accused of being a sorcerer are horrifying. How long before the sultan suspected the princess of being a demon spawn because she was born of the wife of a demon, regardless of fatherhood, after she spirals under Aladdin's influence. It would definitely question her right to the throne. Really makes the next song hit that much harder.

Plus there's so much to like about it such as the role reversal on both Ja'far and Aladdin is so damn clever, the script is just funny and touching at the same time, the music is brings tears to my eyes and even the character development is great too.

8 years later and i'm still thinking about how they had so little time to develop ja'far and sherrezade's relationship and did it BEAUTIFULLY like every part had to fit together just right and it DID the selling point for me really is their acting. don't get me wrong, it's *maz*ingly written and blocked, but the pure joy with which they speak/sing to each other and the adoring looks in their eyes no one could pull this off like dylan and meredith

Why does nobody talk about the credit song, that sounds like a pop cover, just like in every disney remake? Twisted truly is a masterpiece - as a parody, but also as an original.

They actually did this in the 90s Renaissance films too! It's honestly my favorite touch ☺️☺️
