Join us for an unforgettable 8-month musical theatre production program as we bring Disney's Aladdin JR. to life!
Presented by Khial Art Foundation in collaboration with Cadenza Music & Performing Art Academy, this unique program combines professional performing arts training with the excitement of a fully staged theatrical production.
Designed for young performers ages 9–18, students will receive comprehensive training in acting, singing, dance, character development, stage movement, and theatrical performance, culminating in performances at the BlueShore Financial Centre for the Performing Arts.
Based on the beloved Academy Award®-winning Disney film and the Broadway musical, Disney's Aladdin JR. follows Aladdin, a kind-hearted "diamond in the rough," as he discovers a magical lamp and meets the unforgettable Genie. Alongside Princess Jasmine and his loyal friends, Aladdin embarks on an exciting journey of courage, friendship, and self-discovery, learning that true worth comes from honesty, kindness, and believing in yourself.
Filled with spectacular music, colorful characters, exciting choreography, and unforgettable adventures, this production offers young performers an exceptional opportunity to grow as artists, build confidence, develop lifelong friendships, and experience the excitement of performing in a professional theatre.
Registration is by audition only.
