- A Note On Casting And Culture
- Moana JR. celebrates the rich history of Oceania and is based on the beliefs and cultures of real people. When producing this show, we invite you to consider your community and the opportunities to include and/or learn about the cultures of the Pacific Islands.
- As with all shows, we encourage casting that represents your community. Your production will benefit from a cast that includes a variety of races, genders, abilities, and body types, so approach your casting process with care and an open mind. Producing a musical is a wonderful way for your participants to engage with stories and cultures from around the world. At the same time, respectful representation of the people and cultures celebrated in Moana JR. is essential. The Director’s Guide provided in the ShowKit® offers important guidelines and best practices for respectfully celebrating Oceanic culture.
