The Arts Academy presents its middle school musical – MOANA Jr.
Disney’s MOANA JR. is a 90-minute musical adaptation of the 2016 Disney animated film, bringing the adventures of Moana and her village of Motunui to life onstage. Moana JR. features all the beloved songs from the film, written by Tony, Grammy, Emmy, and Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Lin-Manuel Miranda, Opetaia Foa’i, and Mark Mancina, including “How Far I’ll Go,” “Shiny,” and “You’re Welcome.”
The performance dates are Friday, November 22 at 7:00 PM and Saturday, November 23 at 2:00 PM. There are school-time matinees on Thursday, November 21 and Friday, November 22 at 9:50 AM at the Buffalo Academy for Visual and Performing Arts at 450 Masten Avenue in the Mainstage Theater.
This thrilling and heartwarming coming-of-age story follows the strong-willed Moana as she sets sail across the Pacific to save her village and discover the truth about her heritage. Moana and the legendary demigod Maui embark on an epic journey of self-discovery and camaraderie as both learn to harness the power that lies within. With empowering messages of bravery and selflessness, Moana JR. is sure to bring out the hero within each of us.
Show tickets for the evening and weekend performances are available at the Arts Academy during the school days & school hours (8:00 AM – 3:00 PM). The box office also opens one hour before the shows start.
Tickets are $6.00 for adults and $3.00 for grade school students and senior citizens (ages 62 yrs. or older).
