Moana Jr.
The cast has been selected and the rehearsals are in full swing for our exciting production of Disney’s Moana Jr., which will take place in the Rosenberg Performing Arts Theatre, located at the Lower School! Mechina through eighth grade students will participate in this performance both on stage and as members of the crew, not to mention many Davis Academy alumni who will be returning to school to work with students as part of our alumni mentor program.
This thrilling and heartwarming coming-of-age story follows the strong-willed Moana as she sets sail across the Pacific to save her village and discover the truth about her heritage. Moana and the legendary demigod Maui embark on an epic journey of self-discovery and camaraderie as both learn to harness the power that lies within. With empowering messages of bravery and selflessness, Moana JR. is sure to bring out the hero within each of us.

Developing each child's voice
The Davis Academy is leading the way nationally in comprehensive, integrated Theatre Arts Education. The Theatre Program reaches Fourth-Eighth graders on a daily basis where students form vocally confident and empowered identities, develop an awareness of the world around them; and learn to work collaboratively. Theatre is connected into every other class content area from Jewish Studies to Science. Over 65% of the students are involved in the Theatre Program whether in the annual musical, the exploratory, electives, or after-school programming. Students are introduced to the building blocks of Theatre Arts skills and knowledge through applying basic theatre terminology, stage directions, physical skills, kinesthetic movement, emotional recall, playwriting, collaborative design and group performance projects.
We are committed to developing and nurturing each child’s passions and unique voice on and off the stage. We encourage students to become big picture thinkers, champions of creative play,
innovators, and collaborative
communicators.

Aladdin Jr.
Under the masterful direction of Kendrick Phillips, Director of Visual and Performing Arts at The Davis Academy, the Rosenberg Performing Arts Theatre came alive with the enchanting production of Disney’s Aladdin Jr. Nearly 180 talented students, from Mechina: Kindergarten Prep through 8th grade, brought this school-wide musical to life, both on stage and behind the scenes. Their performances and outreach shows captivated an audience of more than 2,800 people. Inspired by Disney's 1992 Academy Award®-winning film and the 2014 Broadway hit, this production was a vibrant, exceptional, and truly magical experience.
