Elton John & Tim Rice’s AIDAIs presented through a special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).

All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI.www.MTIShows.com

About This ProductionOn behalf of Arab Musical Theatre, we thank you for joining us for this imaginative retelling of the

timeless love story of Aida, the Nubian princess whose love of the Egyptian captain Radames

and unlikely kinship with the Pharaoh’s daughter, threaten to bring ruin to both nations. Based

on the Verdi opera of the same name, and gifted with a modern pop/rock score courtesy of the

legendary team of Elton John and Tim Rice, AIDA is a wholly unique theatrical experience about

passion, duty, and courage that reminds us all that, above all else, “Every Story is a Love Story.”

A Word of ThanksWe would like to extend special thanks to The Arab Musical Theatre Committee, who remain

the true source of our strength and success. This group of incredibly devoted volunteers works

continuously for many months prior to and following each production. Their work ensures that our

students will have these unforgettable experiences. We are so grateful to have the opportunity

to work with them. Thank you!

Producing a musical requires a great deal of commitment, time, and support. We are thankful

for all those who offer guidance and assistance during the planning and performance of our

shows. Thanks to Brad Cooper, Arab High School Principal; John Mullins, Arab City Schools’

Superintendent; and the entire Arab City Schools Board of Education for their continued support

of the program.
