Get ready for a wicked good time this August as The Village Players theater brings Disney’s Descendants: The Musical to life onstage at the historic James McCabe Theater.
Based on the smash-hit Disney Channel movie, this high-energy musical follows Mal, Evie, Jay and Carlos, the teen kids of classic villains like Maleficent and Cruella de Vil. Banished to the Isle of the Lost with their famously evil parents, they’re suddenly given the chance to leave exile and attend school in the land of the good guys.
With catchy songs, big dance numbers, amazing costumes and a heartwarming message about forging your own path, Descendants is perfect for the whole family.
This production is directed by Domin Pazo, artistic director of The Village Players and a longtime force in local theater. With over 200 plays to his name and a career spanning stage, screen, radio and TV, he brings decades of experience and a little Disney magic to every show.
