Apparently it's inappropriate for a group of white kids to put on a play of Aladdin, as it is racially insensitive and cultural appropriation. Possibly white washing.
I wonder if we'll see more Jews in Nativity Pageants come Christmas season this year.

It would probably be wise to do research on Aladdin and its cultural origins before performing a play on the story; otherwise, yes, it could be seen as cultural appropriation. Additionally, it could also be interpreted as a form of white-washing, in which a story originally belonging to one culture is interpreted and represented by members of a different culture. Lastly, consideration should be given to the fact that certain characters and themes in Aladdin might not be interpreted in the same manner when told from a different cultural perspective.
