Hear Three New Alan Menken Songs In Video Clips From The Tangled Musical

In April, we told you that Disney would be producing a stage production of Tangled for their Disney Cruise ships. Tangled: The Musical premiered onboard the Disney Magic this month, and now we have video footage of the hour-long musical's three new songs composed by Beauty and the Beast/Aladdin composer Alan Menken. Hit the jump to hear the three new songs in the footage from the new musical numbers, as well as get a behind the scenes tour of how they brought the animated world to life on the stage.

The opening number with Flynn Rider features the first new song "Flower of Gold". The sequence takes place in the Treasure Room of the Royal Palace and accomplishes the task of summarizing the opening of the original film:

The second new Alan Mencken-Composed song comes in the third scene, a humorous number called "Wanted Man" that helps flesh out Flynn's character.

And the final new song, "When She Returns," opens the 8th scene of the stage production featuring Rapunzel, Flynn and the townsfolk.

The show's set designer, Brad Kaye, is no stranger to the challenge of re-imagining an animated world for the stage; he also developed the scenery for "Disney's Aladdin—A Musical Spectacular" aboard the Disney Fantasy. In the video below, Brad tells us all about the scenic elements he is designing for this new show . . . including a first look at the forest and Snuggly Duckling scenes!

Tangled: The Musical will include brand-new songs by Academy Award-winning composer Alan Menken, the Academy Award-winning composer behind Tangled, Enchanted, Pocahontas, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid.

"Tangled: The Musical" will immerse you in Rapunzel's fairytale world through lavish production numbers and spellbinding music. The show will stay true to the storyline from the hit feature film—with a few special twists to create a live staged production—featuring favorite characters like Rapunzel, Flynn Rider, the villainous Mother Gothel and Maximus the police horse. Three new songs created exclusively for this show by Academy Award-winning composer Alan Menken and Grammy Award-winning lyricist Glenn Slater will bring the story to life onstage.
