Students from four Orange County Title 1 elementary schools will perform in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall at Segerstrom Center for the Arts during the fourth annual Disney Musicals in Schools Share Celebration.
This program is offered each year by Segerstrom Center’s Education Department and Disney Theatrical Productions. During the past 17 weeks, students, teachers, and professional teaching artists have worked together during after-school sessions, learning, rehearsing and performing scenes, songs and dance numbers from some of Disney’s beloved musicals.
The goal is to create a sustainable theater program in the participating schools. Thus far, 16 schools and more than 2,000 students have participated in the program.
This year’s schools: James Madison Elementary (Santa Ana) and Sequoia Academy Elementary (Westminster) perform Aladdin KIDS, Faylane Elementary(Garden Grove) performs The Jungle Book KIDS and Esther L. Walter Elementary(Anaheim) performs Cinderella KIDS.
Student Share Celebration provides an extraordinary experience for the students to perform a selection from their chosen musicals on the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall stage for an audience of students, family members, and faculty.
Disney Ambassador Alexa Garcia will serve as host for the event.
