CHICAGO CLASSES

Skyline Children's Theater partners with professional theaters, dance studios, and local schools on the North Side of Chicago to bring theater education to young actors. With multiple locations and age levels, new and experienced young actors learn fundamental musical theater skills that improve confidence, creativity, and collaboration in an encouraging environment. Currently you can find Skyline at two locations in Lakeview, Ravenswood, and select Lincoln Park and Lakeview schools.

The 20th Anniversary of Skyline continues with the reprise of another 2020 COVID-19 pandemic production! The Fall 2020 season forced us to get creative, so we socially distanced in outdoor productions of Moana Jr. However, we knew we needed to reprise this musical adaptation of the 2016 Disney animated film and bring the adventures of Moana and her village of Motunui to life on stage for a full run!

 

This thrilling and heartwarming coming-of-age story follows the strong-willed Moana and friends Pua and Hei Hei as they set sail across the Pacific to save Motunui 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 fun characters like Tomatoa, Chief Tui, Te Ka, Te Fiti, Sina, Gramma Tala, and more, Moana Jr. has roles where every actor gets to shine!
