Disney's Mulan Jr.  (Apr. 16-18, 2010)

Our 10th Production

In April of 2010, Acting Up traveled back to the legendary, story-telling days of ancient China. The Huns invaded, and it was up to the misfit Mulan and her mischievous sidekick Mushu to save the Emperor! Mulan Jr. was a heartwarming celebration of culture, honor, and a fighting spirit. Based on the 1998 Disney film Mulan, the production includes favorites like “Reflection,” “Honor to Us All” and “I’ll Make a Man Out of You” as well as new songs exclusive to the live production.
