About The Show
Travel back to the legendary, story-telling days of ancient China in this stage adaptation of Disney’s Mulan. Defying the village matchmaker, Mulan takes up arms and disguises herself as a boy in order to spare her father from having to serve in the army. When the Huns invade, it is up to the misfit Mulan to save the Emperor. Disney’s Mulan Jr. is a heartwarming celebration of culture, honor, and the fighting spirit. The score includes favorites from the film like “Reflection” and “I’ll Make a Man Out of You” as well as new songs written for the stage version.
