Adam Jacobs & Arielle Jacobs at Pistahan Festival — “A Million Miles Away” from ALADDIN

🎶 Talented Broadway stars and sibling duo @adamjacobsnyc @ariellejacobs took us on a magic carpet ride at the recent Pistahan Festival with their performance of “A Million Miles Away” from the Aladdin soundtrack. THANK YOU @adamjacobsnyc @ariellejacobs for being part of the iconic Bay Area tradition and festival PISTAHAN!

For Broadway siblings Adam Jacobs and Arielle Jacobs, talent runs in the family. The siblings’ journey to Broadway began when they both got their first taste of professional theatre and performed in one musical called “Honor Song for Crazy Horse” at the Mountain View Center for Performing Arts in California.

Adam’s big break in Broadway was playing Marius in Les Miserables with Lea Salonga. Arielle’s break was playing “Gabriella” in the national tour of Disney’s High School Musical. Both have played lead roles in different Broadway tours of “Aladdin”, Adam playing Aladdin and Arielle playing Jasmine. This talented sibling duo will be performing “A Million Miles Away” from the Aladdin soundtrack.

The Jacobs family lived in Half Moon Bay, California until both kids were old enough to spread their wings. Both went to college in NYU, Adam finishing with a BFA in Theater at Tisch School of the Arts while Arielle graduated with a Bachelor of Music degree in Vocal Performance and concentration on musical theater.
