  • 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.

      @@dangreen3868 Starkid tickets aren't hundreds of dollars per seat. 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.

    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).

    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.

    I'm currently revisiting these Starkid musicals and I really have to say that "Twisted" is one of their best musicals they ever did. It's like they managed to take a Disney movie and turn it into a story about a man who not only goes through grief but does everything he can to help the kingdom and the Princess. 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. I think of all the musicals Starkid has done, this one is my favorite.

      Thing I love most about this show is that it could be cannon, near the end we see Aladdin become the guy who told the story of the og aladdin and considering how much of a shitty person Aladdin was in this musical, it’s completely believable that he was lying to make it seem like he was the hero in story instead of ja’far

    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.

    One of my favourite details is that in "Dream a little harder" when the towns people are singing all the ways Jafar could meet his end, they reference the ways the villains that appear in "Twisted met their ends
    Skewed by a ship = Ursula
    Eaten by Hyenas = Scar
    Plummet to their death from a castle = Gaston
    The only villains death that is mentioned but they don't appear in "Twisted" is "hanged in tangled jungle vines" which it obviously references Clayton, who is commonly said to have one of the most brutal and violent deaths in any disney film

    My beloved boyfriend watched this movie with me. We were extremely happy. Now we are on a 2 month break and it's not sure if he still loves me.
    This is all your fault Jafar.

      Of course I want you to get your happily ever after, but if you're still on the outs it might be time to start thinking about a rebound. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    i really would've loved to see more of Lauren's malificent and maybe let her have her own little solo in Twisted. her delivery of the line "i only wished to be included... for once" always gives me goosebumps by the way she yells it. also the tigerfucker joke is amazing i love it

    It is strange that Jafar calls Pixar their vassal while Achmed declares it a sovereign nation and Jafar just stands there. Your vassal just declared its independence in front of you and you do nothing. No wonder they brought whole army to overthrow the sultan.
    This play is deep.

    I just realized something about Jafar at the ending. It took me this long but... yeah.
    When Jafar became a Djinn, the way he did things was still very logical. The blue Djinn just poofed everything to existence, but Jafar had plausible reasons for the wishes being answered.
    Sultan - the Sultan was signing a will
    Money - stray ammunition destroyed a wall, conveniently discovering a large sum
    Happiness - (this is a bit of a stretch but) he did say earlier that he wanted the genie to conclude even without him directly wishing, just by 'natural' logic, that someone who saved the city and stuff needs someone by his side so the genie would grant him his bride back? (again this one is a bit of a stretch)
    It ties in to his very logical character.
