Cast A - Descendants: The Musical
Imprisoned on the Isle of the Lost – home of the most infamous villains who ever lived – the teenaged children of Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Jafar, and Cruella De Vil have never ventured off the island… until now. When the four troublemakers are sent to attend prep school alongside the children of beloved Disney heroes, they have a difficult choice to make: should they follow in their parents’ wicked footsteps or learn to be good?

Rehearsal Attendance and Conflicts
Playful People strives to create a positive theatre experience for everyone involved, and to support this goal, we ask participants to keep rehearsal conflicts to a minimum.
We expect participants to attend at least 75% of their regular rehearsals. For Descendants, which has 9-weeks of rehearsals (4 days/week), this allows up to 9 conflicts.
Please consider whether this fits you/your child’s schedule before signing up.
Tech week attendance is mandatory for the safety of all involved. Missing a tech week rehearsal for any reason other than an illness or family emergency will result in removal from the show.
Any conflicts (standing appointments, trips, etc.) need to be identified on the required supplemental registration form (link sent in confirmation email).
ALL participants must be available every day of tech week
TECH WEEK REHEARSALS (MANDATORY) are:
