Disney’s Aladdin the musical is now on it’s North American tour, and thanks to the hunky hairy chested men in the show, the musical is hotter than hot in a lot of good ways.

The Middle East meets Hollywood styled show is chock full of gorgeous Busby Berkeley like moments, and many of the eclectic characters draw on drag queen culture.
Today, we take you into Aladdin’s Cave of Wonders and give you a sneak preview into the award winning touring Broadway musical.

➤ Someone chained a giant cross to a gate in the gay neighborhood of Greenwich Village and folks painted it with rainbows.
Story goes like this: 9 days ago an enormous cross showed up chained and locked to my apt gate. The mysterious owner of the cross has the key and moves it around my street (which happens to be Gay St). Confused by the mute point this stranger was trying to make with a cross on Gay street, my neighbors & I decided to turn the cross into a Love Cross. Strangers, family, friends, dogs, neighbors & random tourist all stopped to paint, drink champagne in the street and celebrate the cross that symbolizes love in the neighborhood. Plot twist: we added our own lock to the chained cross and superglued both key holes. #GayStreet #westvillage #LoveCross ❤️✌
