Fantabulous. Thrilling. Memorable. Togetherness. Ineffable. Extraordinary.

Those are their words, not ours. 🎭 Meet the cast of Disney's Dare to Dream JR. at National Children's Theatre from 30 September to 11 October. They’re aged 14 to 18, from different schools, Saturday Workshops and the public, and many meeting each other for the very first time.

Every single one of them is already living their best life on the rehearsal stage.

Each performer will be assigned a signature Disney song, from Frozen's Let It Go to Encanto's Surface Pressure to Moana's How Far I'll Go; and bring it to life on NCT’s stage with full production values, under the direction of Ivor Jones.

Disney was a big part of their childhoods. Now they're bringing it to life, 40 of the greatest songs in the Disney catalogue, on the stage at NCT. And if you don't book now, you will regret it. 👇

📅 30 September – 11 October 2026
📍 National Children's Theatre, 3 Junction Avenue, Parktown
🎟 Only 30 performances. Book now: https://www.quicket.co.za/organisers/58508-national-childrens-theatre
