You never know what might happen with live theatre, and that was certainly the case for the lucky audience members who got to witness Tony Winner, Tony Awards Host, and everyone's favorite Carpool Karaoke driver, James Corden, in a cameo role at the Friday night performance of Disney's Aladdin on Broadway. Corden apparently assisted the Genie in the musical's show-stopping number, 'Friend Like Me.' No word yet as to what Corden and the rest of our friends from Agrabah are cooking up, but I'm sure we'll find out soon enough on The Late Late Show. In the meantime, check out some of the tweets from fans who were abuzz with excitement at intermission and after the performance's curtain below!

On Monday, July 11, the Theater People podcast welcomes Tony winner James Monroe Iglehart. Iglehart made his Broadway debut in 2007 as Mitch in THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE. In 2009 he originated the role of Bobby in the Tony Award winning Best Musical, MEMPHIS.

Khori Petinaud was more of an athlete as a child yet she still sashayed around her house in tutus, tiaras, and dance slippers. She didn't actually start formal ballet classes until she was thirteen. Having been bitten by the 'ballet bug' was, in a word, transformative. Given her age, the young Petinaud was not one to waste time. She attended the summer program at Dance Theatre of Harlem that very same year. Eventually she discovered her love of modern dance while studying at Alvin Ailey and subsequently attended Tisch School of the Arts where she received her BFA in dance. Her foray into musical theatre was with the national tour of The Color Purple.
