Rehearsals will be held from 6:30 p.m. until 8:30 each evening , starting July 6, and continue every Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday th

e entire month of July, with some possible rehearsals on Friday, if this is deemed necessary. Performances are scheduled for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, of August 5, 6, and 7th, respectively, at 7:30 p.m. each evening. There is no charge for participating in the workshop, however, parents will be responsible for each child’s costume(s). Some children may wish to be cast in two roles, as there are several scenes in which townspeople and crowds are included. That will be determined by the turnout and each child’s willingness to accept more than one role. Parents will be asked to sign a waiver of liability in order for their child to participate. More details will be forthcoming.

Our Moana Jr. cast ranges in age from 5-19 years old! It is a blessing to all involved to see the older children take time to teach and make friends with the younger children in the play!
They truly all become more like a family before the production is over!

We would like to give a BIG shout out and THANK YOU to First Methodist Church of Butler… who allows us to use their Family Life Center as our theatre during our summer productions & more events throughout the year!! While we dream of a venue of our own one day, this church has stepped up in a major way to allow us to continue to offer the arts in our area by lending this space to us for our rehearsals & shows!!
The address to FMC is 511 S. Mulberry Ave., Butler, AL and this will be our performance location on July 23, 24, 25!!
Today’s cast spotlight is on Tenley Gibson!! A crab might be useless without her right claw, but Tenley will make sure all of Tamatoa’s “crabulous” deeds are done in this featured role!
She is also doubling as part of the Village ensemble this year… because we love when this young star is on the stage! ⭐️

The Moana Jr. cast had its 2nd rehearsal last night where they finished learning the opening number!
We think the opening number could be a stand-alone show…. but we have so much more in store for this production and we can’t wait for you all to see it on July 23rd, 24th, and 25th!!!
Today’s cast spotlight is on Melody Graham… we all call her “Mel”.
Mel is playing Tamatoa… and we can’t wait to see what comedy she brings to the stage with her character… a treasure & attention loving, glamorous crab! 🦀
