Disney In Concert Magical Music From The Movies Tale as Old as Time ARIELLE JACOBS starred on Broadway as Nina Rosario in the four-time Tony & Grammy award winning musical In The Heights, opposite creator Lin-Manuel Miranda and is currently starring as Nessarose in the Broadway production of Wicked. Off-Broadway, she has starred in two world-premiere plays by Pulitzer-winning playwright and director Nilo Cruz; entitled Sotto Voce (Lucila Pulpo) and Farhad or the Secret of Being (Farhad). Jacobs was seen in the original National Touring companies of In the Heights (Nina) and Disney's High School Musical (Gabriella), and in Shakespeare Theatre Company's production of Two Gentlemen of Verona: a Rock Opera (Julia). Broadway workshops include: Head Over Heels, Nightingale, MASK, GoGo Beach, It Shoulda Been You, The Boy from New York City. TV/film credits: "Taxi Brooklyn;" “Commander in Chief;” “Dance War;” “Water Lilies”; “Disney’s 365.” While her singing voice can be heard on film scores and on television, she has also performed onstage in many of America's greatest concert halls (including Lincoln Center in NYC, The Kennedy Center in Washington DC, Symphony Hall in Boston, Yale Hall, the Saenger Theater in New Orleans, Kauffman Center, and many more) beside legendary artists such as Wynton Marsalis and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, Damien Sneed, Chaka Khan, Teena Marie, and Stephen Schwartz. She has also had the honor to sing the National Anthem for the LA Kings (twice!), The Boston Celtics, and the Texas Rangers! Outside of performing, Arielle founded The Girls Camaraderie Project, a non-profit organization that inspires camaraderie and community, instead of competition, among middle-school girls.
