This Thursday, September 9 and Saturday, September 11, Aspire Performing Arts Company (PAC) will hold auditions for its upcoming production of Disney’s Moana JR., based on the hit Disney film.
Disney’s Moana JR. is a musical adaptation of the 2016 Disney animated film, bringing the adventures of Moana and her village of Motunui to life onstage.

With empowering messages of bravery and selflessness, Moana JR. is sure to bring out the hero within each of us.
